Event Details
Othello, an English Touring Theatre, Oxford Playhouse and Shakespeare at the Tobacco Factory Production marks the first play to be staged at Dubai Opera for the first time in 2019. Following a critically-acclaimed tour and London run, Richard Twyman’s vital production of Othello will be performed over three consecutive days.
Othello – one of Shakespeare’s most startlingly contemporary plays – is a masterful depiction of a life torn apart by prejudice. Venice; a western colonial power, employs the newly-married Othello, a Muslim general, to lead its army against the impending Turkish invasion. In a society torn apart by discrimination and fear, Othello’s life quickly unravels. Manipulated by Iago, he turns on everything he holds dear. The drama – penned by William Shakespeare more than 400 years ago – retains a contemporary edge, and adds world-class theatre to Dubai Opera’s wide range of entertainment offerings.
