I enjoyed a fascinating evening in the audience of an erudite discussion between four actors who have taken on the role of Othello in the eponymous play.
It was part of the 'Shakespeare and Race' season at Shakespeare's Globe and it was good to hear an open discussion about the deliberate racism in Othello, which can make the play difficult to watch. As I'm going to see the current Globe production in a couple of weeks, this was a great opportunity to hear from some past actors who've taken on the role, as well as Andre Holland, the current Othello.
