The cunning Iago deftly manipulates perceptions and emotions, using racial and cultural prejudices to bring about Othello’s tragic downfall. Director Oskaras Koršunovas presents a modern lens on this timeless tale, drawing parallels between Iago’s machinations and today’s digital manipulations, spotlighting how easily our insecurities can be weaponized in an age of information.
“Othello is a performance you will want to see more than once… It’s a sip of oxygen, reinstating the belief that theater is a magical and unique place.” – Piotr Wyszomirski
