Shakespeare’s most compelling and intimate tragedy, Othello tackles themes of love, honor and jealousy amid racial tension that are as relevant today as when it was first written. Inspired by film noir and set during World War II, the play’s backdrop is militaristic but is, at heart, a domestic tragedy about the formation and destruction of a marriage.
