The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. Once again infusing one of Shakespeare's most poignant tragedies with their "art of silence," Synetic Theater now explores Othello, the tale of love destroyed by jealousy. When the general Othello triumphantly returns home to the promise of peace and marriage, little can he know that his most trusted lieutenant is also one of the most fiendish and manipulative villains imaginable. Scandal is fueled, families and friendships destroyed, as Othello's world comes crashing down, until a "trifle light as air"--a handkerchief--undoes them all. This production includes cast members with and without disabilities. Part of the 2010 International VSA Festival.
Performance Timing: 90 minutes, with no intermission.
NOTE: Recommended for ages 16 and up. This production contains brief nudity and adult content.
