Shakespeare's Globe: Othello

Running time: 186 mins

Theatre, Drama

Celebrated by many, Othello has risen through the ranks of the Met police. But can his hardwon reputation, his marriage to Desdemona, and his own subconscious survive the toxic systems that surround him? Sixteenth-century Venice becomes modern-day London's Docklands, as Othello grapples with many of the same issues that successful Black people have faced for centuries. This is an Othello for our times. Experience Shakespeare's confronting look at the destructive impact of institutional racism, toxic masculinity, and a justice system locked in a vicious cycle of self-fulfilling prophecy. Director Ola Ince debuted in the intimate, candlelit Sam Wanamaker Playhouse with this 'inspired' ★★★★ (The Guardian) and 'profound' ★★★★ (Evening Standard) take on Shakespeare's blistering tragedy. The critically-acclaimed show was captured live in March 2024 at The Globe's Sam Wannamaker Playhouse, giving it an intimate-yet-cinematic feel that will be a treat for lovers of Shakespeare and theatre in general. The release also features cinema-exclusive, including interviews with the cast and a behind-the-scenes look at the stunning venue.
