Desdemona, a Play About a Handkerchief is a contemporary twist on Shakespeare's Othello. This bawdy adaptation with tongue-in-cheek humour reinvents the stereotypical role of women and their ulterior motives. With stylised movement and aspects of mime, this piece of theatre pushes boundaries and dares to be different. Set in the roaring 20s in picture perfect dresses, Desdemona reveals the secrets of her boudoir and unveils the needs she wants met. With interludes of original music orchestrated live from the space, Desdemona will take your into her world.
