Othello: an edit

Here Shakespeare's orignal script is edited down for performance in under an hour. This compression increases production's narrative drive whilst a consious effort has been made to retain the play's poetry and moments of thoughtful reflection.

Commissioned by Saltley Academy, Birmingham for their Year 8 production this unfussy volume is laid out to work as an easily performed script. It contains no commentary or contexturalising notes, but it is llustrated by the students!
