Othello is a general in the United States Army. He is newly married to Desdemona. Othello’s aide-de-camp, Iago, sets out to destroy Othello by convincing him that Desdemona is cheating on him with Cassio, a dashing lieutenant. Iago’s wife, Emilia, has her suspicions. This is a Shakespearean tragedy, so it doesn’t end well for anyone.
Our production of Othello is set in San Francisco and Santa Catalina, CA, in 1881.
