In this In Conversation event, audiences will join Phyllida Lloyd CBE (Director) and Dame Harriet Walter (Brutus) to dive deeper into the origin of the production, its radical interpretation of the text, and how it has resonated with schools, communities and alternative education settings across a five-week national tour.

Who Is Othello? Sharon D Clarke & Monique Touko In Conversation

WW event image (1)

Join us to explore the 2027 Swan Theatre production of Othello, with Sharon D Clarke (Othello) and Monique Touko (Director) discussing the play and the character and how they speak to the world around us. At the heart of the discussion is how the central character of Othello has been investigated and reinterpreted across many productions. This conversation will examine the role and the play through the lens of racism, jealousy, and the control of narrative speaking to the world we live in today.
