A BBC Radio production of Shakespeare's monumental tragedy, "Othello".
Love, racism, jealousy and desire are at the emotional core of Shakespeare's monumental tragedy, a tender love story shattered by one man's obsessive hatred of another. "Othello" is noble, brave and victorious. Iago, passed over for a position in the army, fuels his diabolical revenge with hatred and snarling racism. Poignant, intense and heartbreaking, "Othello" mercilessly explores every inch of the human condition. This BBC Radio production stars much-loved actor and comedian Lenny Henry, who won the Evening Standard's Best Newcomer Award for his stunning performance as the tortured Moor. First performed at the West Yorkshire Playhouse, it subsequently toured the country before arriving in London's West End where Henry received rave reviews. Featuring the cast from the acclaimed West End production and with original music from Conrad Nelson, who also plays Iago, this mesmerising radio drama grips the listener from start to tragic finish. 'Impossible to praise too highly Henry's courage in taking on so demanding and exposed a role, and then performing it with such authority and feeling' - "Daily Telegraph". 'Magnificent' - "Daily Express".
