The Repertory Theatre of St. Louis

Shame, guilt, class, lies and sex all explode to the surface in Pulitzer Prize-winner David Mamet’s newest play where cases–and people–are never just black and white. When high-profile attorneys Jack Lawson and Henry Brown find themselves defending a privileged white executive accused of raping a young black woman, facts quickly become secondary to underlying agendas. Race poses blunt questions with provocative language that will leave everyone talking long after the lights go down.

Shakespeare Festival St. Louis Education Tour
Touring through end of April
Shakespeare’s thrilling classic about an outsider who misplaces his trust with cataclysmic results. This elegant 50 minute telling provides the action and emotion that has made Othello one of the most popular tragedies for any age. You’ll meet the hateful and jealous Iago, one of Shakespeare’s greatest villains; the powerful and mislead Othello; the truthful, innocent Desdemona: all are woven together in a plot of lies and treachery that show us how appearances can deceive. Shakespeare tangles with racism, love and betrayal, showing us that what we think we know about ourselves and believe about others doesn’t always hold true. Most appreciated by grades 4 - 12.
