Othello

Othello, a Moor, falls in love with Desdemona but is broken by jealousy falsely encouraged. [Shakespeare]’s most human play sets delicacy and power, trust and jealousy, love and hate, good and evil in stark and tragic opposition. Powerless in the face of their own self destructive instincts, the characters are caught on a downward spiral towards inevitable tragedy.International cast performs Othello in three days of open rehearsals to recreate original theatre practice and raise funds for Alexander Devine Children’s Hospice at Reading Abbey RuinsThis performance takes place at Reading Abbey Ruins
