uOthello noDesdemona

Shakespeare’s timeless tale of forbidden love, loyalty, power, deception and loss is staged in the heart of Pietermaritzburg at a unique moment in South Africa's history. And no one understands the testing crossroads of race, gender and class quite like we do in uOthello no Desdemona. In a world where love continues to survive the struggle against hate, we invite all lovers to consider the faces and stories behind #metoo and #sayhername and let Shakespeare's characters and questions meet the challenges of our time.
