Othello

‘Men should be what they seem.’
 
Jealousy kills.
 
Othello is at the peak of his powers: not only Venice’s greatest general, but now husband to the noble and beautiful Desdemona.
 
But he does not know that in passing over his servant Iago for promotion, he has created a deadly – and brilliant – enemy.
 
John Douglas Thompson (Till, Theatre for A New Audience’s The Merchant of Venice) takes the title role opposite Will Keen (Operation Mincemeat, Wolf Hall) as Iago and Juliet Rylance (McMafia, Perry Mason) as Desdemona, in this new production from director Tim Carroll (Artistic Director of Canada’s Shaw Festival and director of the award-winning Twelfth Night and Richard III featuring Mark Rylance at Shakespeare’s Globe, in the West End and on Broadway).
