The charismatic general Othello (Frank X) is admired throughout Venice for his strength, honesty, and courage... except by the treacherous villain Iago (Peter Pryor). When Othello marries the beautiful Desdemona (Mary McCool), Iago seizes the opportunity to exploit the general's trust, inflame his jealousy, and ultimately destroy him. One of the most powerful tragedies of the English language, Othello is a taut epic of passion and betrayal that crashes to a devastating conclusion. Also featuring Anthony Lawton, Brian McCann, Seth Reichgott, Sarah Sanford, and Luigi Sottile.
