Othello Reworked
The Company decided that we would create a piece of improvised theatre around the emotions of love, hate, jealousy and fear. Due to the time constraints of this production for it’s initial performance, we decided that the cast needed a basic plot to be able to develop the themes around.
We felt that Shakespeare’s Othello contained all of the above and decided to present the classic tale as a modern adaptation. Through a series of improvisations based around key points of the original story, the young actors have created a short, exciting play that highlights the dramatic role of those four emotions. Using song, dynamic action and modern dialogue, the production is set in a school and brings Shakespeare’s story into a modern context and accessible to all ages.
