OTHELLO: Schools Tour
Fiction or Reality? Which is the more real – stage, screen or life? This is the question being raised by What if Works’ latest production of Shakespeare’s “Othello”. In association with GableStage, What if Works explores the mediums of stage and screen, examining the question of whether art imitates life or life imitates art. In a world that has brought the two mediums together through virtual reality, reality TV shows and video games, “Othello” explores the stage life as “reality” contrasted with the fixed reality of film. So where does that leave the reality of life itself? These and other questions concerning truth and fiction are presented to young audiences in a compellingly dramatic production.
