New Place Players presents Othello, directed by Makenna Masenheimer, combining their signature original live chamber music and acting which celebrates language, action and deeply human storytelling. Othello will be performed for an intimate audience of fifty people in the round, immersed in a former foundry with a rich collection of statuary, featuring both skylights and balconies. As one of Shakespeare's greatest tragedies, this production will be a searing & intimate look at shame, manipulation and the devastation it provokes. It will bring New Place Players' signature dynamic interplay of music, Lecoq movement, swordplay and language to a new level — with musicians and actors collaborating with one another to inspire an extraordinarily fresh take on Shakespeare’s powerful and timeless story.
