American Repertory Theater (A.R.T) at Harvard University, under the leadership of Terrie and Bradley Bloom Artistic Director Diane Paulus and Executive Producer Diane Borger, has released additional production photos of the acclaimed Oregon Shakespeare Festival production of Othello directed by Bill Rauch, playing now through February 9 at the Loeb Drama Center in Cambridge, MA.

Check them out below!

In Shakespeare's most intimate tragedy, director Bill Rauch (All the Way at the A.R.T./Broadway transfer, Fingersmith at the A.R.T.) explores society's polarizing struggles with difference and the destructive results when women are silenced. Consumed by their bigotry and xenophobia, those who praised the Moorish general Othello for his military successes now reject his marriage to Desdemona. The newlyweds are determined to overcome this resentment, but Othello's assignment in Cyprus draws them into the web of his lieutenant Iago, whose jealousy knows no bounds.

The Othello cast includes Chris Butler as Othello; Danforth Comins as Iago; Derek Garza as Cassio; Stephen Michael Spenceras Roderigo; Alejandra Escalante as Desdemona; Amy Kim Waschke as Emilia; Richard Howard as Brabantio and others;Richard Elmore as Duke; Daniel José Molina as Lodovico, Second Senator, and others; Neimah Djourabchi as Montano, Police Officer, and others; Vilma Silva as Gratiana, First Senator, and others; and Rainbow Dickerson as Bianca, Police Officer, and others.

The creative team includes Bill Rauch, Director (Fingersmith at OSF and the A.R.T.; All the Way at the A.R.T./Broadway transfer-2014 Tony, Drama Desk, and Elliot Norton Awards); Christopher Acebo, Scenic Designer (Fingersmith at OSF and the A.R.T.-2017 Elliot Norton Award for Outstanding Design, Large Theater; All the Way at the A.R.T. and on Broadway); Dede M. Ayite, Costume Designer; Xavier Pierce, Lighting Designer; Andre J. Pluess, Composer and Sound Designer (Fingersmith at OSF and the A.R.T. 2017-Elliot Norton Award for Outstanding Design, Large Theater); and Tom Ontiveros, Projection Designer.
