After William Shakespeare
Synchronous Theater
Adaptation & Direction: Hans Machowiak
Masks, Stage, and Costumes: Johanna Maria Burkhart

Shakespeare's classic on the grand stage of the Gutspark Netzeband! The story of the successful general Othello, who, aside from his brilliant military achievements, becomes entangled in a dense web of intrigue, love, jealousy, and hatred, is presented in a new adaptation in the style of the unique Netzeband Mask Synchronous Theater.
After winning a battle, Othello marries the beautiful Desdemona against her father's will, sparking envy and jealousy in his subordinate, Iago, who is determined to break his superior's winning streak, prevent the promotion of another unwanted rival, and take his place.
Through skillful strategizing, a destructive whirlpool is created, leaving all characters almost defenseless and at the mercy of it...
The themes of stigmatization and racism, in addition to the war-torn setting that drives the plot, provide a connection to our current times, where we are more than ever confronted with similar issues.
