Starring Eamonn Walker and Tim McInnerny and performed at the Globe Theatre, this stage-bound production captures all the jealousy, deception and murder of William Shakespeare's classic play.

Review
'Full of pace and energy... Eamonn Walker brings to Othello dignity, grace and a fine sense of the contradiction that leads Othello to lament "the pity of it" even as he prepares to murder Desdemona' --The Guardian

Review
'Walker cuts a charismatic and brooding figure. He charts the hero's descent into murderous jealousy with a vivid physicality... Zoe Tapper (Desdemona) is enchanting' --The Independent
