The Guthrie Theater presents William Shakespeare's OTHELLO, directed by Marion McClinton. The show opens Friday, March 14 and runs through Sunday, April 20, 2014. BroadwayWorld has a sneak peek at the cast in rehearsal below!
For the first time in nearly two decades, the Guthrie presents a bold new Othello for our audiences to feast upon. This classic Shakespeare tragedy is an astonishing epic of sweeping passions and murderous ambition - a thrilling meditation on the power of love and the destructiveness of suspicion, all triggered by one of literature's most seductively manipulative villains: Iago.
Directed by Tony and Drama Desk award nominee and Obie Award-winner Marion McClinton, best-known for his Broadway and regional productions of August Wilson's plays, this devastating story examines issues of cultural diversity, race and betrayal in what promises to be a profound night of theater you won't soon forget.
