Othello, Shakespeare & Company’s critically-acclaimed hit of last summer has received great praise for its second run in Founders’ Theatre. Berkshire Living calls it “an extraordinary production, not to be missed,” and goes on to say “I saw this Othello last summer and thought it was excellent; I think it’s even better now.”
WAMC praises John Douglas Thompson (who won the OBIE Award for his performance of the role at Theatre For A New Audience this Spring): he “takes command of the scenes both physically and vocally. His sense of honor in winning the hand of Desdemona…his early disbelief of her infidelity…and his eventual loss of reason…this is a powerful performance.
