SUMMARY
William Shakespeare's masterful tragedy explores the timeless themes of love, war and toxic jealousy, set against the backdrop of the Vietnam War and racial and social issues of 1969. Manipulated by his villainous lieutenant Iago, Othello's descent into darkness and destruction is especially poignant and powerful.
The cast features Nathan Boren (Duke/Clown), Phillip James Brannon (Othello), Casey Campbell (Cassio), Yosh Hayashi (Montano/Senator), Stephen Loch (Brabantio), Stephan Madar (Iago), Nate Maher (Gratiano/Senator), David Rispoli (Lodovico/Senator), Teissia Treynet (Desdemona), Mira Vasiljevic (Emilia), Tiffany Villarin (Bianca), Rawson Vint (Roderigo).
