Othello Syndrome by Chameleon's Dish - Drayton Theatre

Chameleon's Dish in association with Sky or the Bird and Grindstone presents Othello Syndrome, by William Shakespeare, adapted and directed by Hannah Kaye, at the Drayton Theatre, a fringe venue above the Drayton Arms Pub in South Kensington, from 3 to 28 Sep 2013.

Cast includes Sonnie Beckett, Joey Ellis, Hannah Kaye, Tom Futerill, Rosalind Parker, Andrew Hobday, Adrian Quinton .

A world where irrational jealousy leads inevitably to murder. Challenging misogyny, this production recounts the tragedy of Shakespeare's Othello in a highly physical interpretation which puts the emphasis on the gender politics of the play.'Othello Syndrome' exposes the damage caused by the way in which the traditional version of the story has entered our culture: the terrible myth of honour, the vile cult of virginity.
