"Othello" Play Seeking Male/Female Performers
ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE CONSIDERED. Auditions for "Othello" play, looking for male and female performers. See more details below. About the project: The war for Cyprus is over before it begins, but Othello’s troubles have only just started. A celebrated Moorish general whose service has earned him a precarious place in Venice, Othello has secretly married Desdemona, the Duke’s daughter. Iago, enraged that Othello promoted Cassio above him, sets out to poison his trust in his wife. As Iago’s lies take hold, Othello becomes convinced that Desdemona has betrayed him, setting in motion a spiral of jealousy and vengeance that ends in tragedy. Rate: Actors will be compensated through a profit-sharing model based on pay-what-you-can audience contributions. Selected actors will receive a written performance agreement outlining compensation, expectations, and scheduling prior to rehearsals. This agreement is intended to ensure clarity, transparency, and shared expectations throughout the process.
