OTHELLO or The Tragedy of Conchy Joe
When the strong-willed Desdemona marries against her father’s wishes, her world is turned upside down. Her new husband is powerful, rugged, romantic…and white, a Conchy Joe.
Bahamian blood runs high in a radical and feisty reworking of Shakespeare’s classic. In this world of opposites, black is white, freedom is imprisonment and love, through the distorting prism of jealousy, remains as unpredictable as the ocean.
Following the success of That Bahamian Ting, Othello was the second co-production with The Nuffield Theatre, Southampton.
"The audience was captivated by this innovative yet authentic production."
Southampton Daily Echo
"This is a striking, bold and innovative retelling which goes right to the heart of Shakespeare’s classic. "
Chichester Observer
"An unashamed success."
