The musical production Othello aims to introduce youngsters to the famous story by William
Shakespeare through objects that can be seen or found all around us – in our daily lives or in
specific situations. The actors use ready-made objects and give them a different meaning. The audience will be encouraged to use their imagination and adapt a new perspective on everyday items that will embody various characters on stage. The performance promotes creative thinking in youngsters and offers a unique way to experience the plot.

The play, in which the audience will meet Othello and his beloved Desdemona, tells the story of love, conspiracy driven by envy, and deadly jealousy. The classic tale was transformed into a new stage production through the joint creative efforts of the theatre company ESARTE and the LNSO musicians.
