The creatives behind the classic Othello
William Shakespeare's classic play comes to life on stage under the fresh direction of Ola Ince. After the highly-praised 2021 rendition of Romeo & Juliet, Ola's celebrated direction makes its debut at the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse with Shakespeare's thought-provoking exploration of the devastating consequences of racism.
Othello, the General. Othello, the hero. Othello, the husband. Othello, the Black man. Lauded by all, Othello has built a thriving career for himself. However, when one man's unbridled envy and cunning manipulation ignite a destructive blaze, it not only tarnishes Othello's standing but also shatters his mental stability. Othello, the victim. Othello, the adversary. Othello, the killer.
