Tragedy with music
In the midst of society, the stranger is successful in his endeavors, respected and esteemed. And yet he remains a stranger, constantly in danger of being attacked, the target of prejudice and racist resentment. Shakespeare could hardly be more contemporary.

Shakespeare sets his characters at war: politics, marriage, the bed. And in the end, it's not just the soldiers Othello, Iago, and Cassio who are left wounded or killed on the battlefield, but also the civilians: Desdemona, Rodrigo, and Emilia, Iago's own wife. Victims of Othello's bloodlust, collateral damage from a man in a frenzy.
Everyone watches, shocked and stunned. How could it have come to this? Othello—a milestone in theatrical literature and one of Shakespeare's most wise plays—is a fascinating undertaking. A gripping thriller, strong characters caught in the inevitable vortex of human catastrophe, driven by love and envy, hatred and jealousy.
