About

Sharon D Clarke takes the title role in this tragedy of shattered passion, revenge and psychological warfare.

A respected female military general meets her soulmate. Desdemona is captivated by Othello’s battle stories, and she by Desdemona’s compassion. Their love holds promise and potential; together they are a positive force for change.

But their unsanctioned marriage perilously crosses boundaries of race, sex and status. Jealousy, suspicion and malign intent close in and corrupt their innermost circles, their trust, their minds and their lives.

Making her RSC debut, Monique Touko (Marie and Rosetta, Jaja’s African Hair Braiding) sets this movement and music-infused Othello in a climate-threatened future, in which a black lesbian holds a seat of power. But in a society hellbent on ‘justice’ and revenge, can Othello’s gifts of feminine intuition, professional prowess and devoted love protect her?
