At Downstage Theatre from 2 Jun 2009

Shakespeare as you never seen it before.

This tragic tale of revenge, betrayal, jealousy and love comes alive in modern-day Polynesia. A play that portrays Othello as the only palagi character in a brown society, driven by the cunning manipulations of the malignant Iago. A fast-paced heartbreaking drama performed by one of New Zealands newest Polynesian theatre groups.

Directed by Michelle Johansson

  • Just saw these guys on a doco this morning...really inspiring...onya guys!!

  • lol Billy you nearly gave me a heart attack at 1:55 lol...

  • Or why don't you all simply do the ORIGINAL play as Shakespeare wrote it & simply have ERIE DINGO, TOMMY LEWIS OR SOME OTHER ABORIGINAL AUSTRALIAN ACTOR PLAY OTHELLO SINCE OTHELLO WAS A BLACK NORTH AFRICAN PRINCE & ABORIGINES, UNLIKE POLYNESIANS, ARE ACTUALLY BLACK.

  • Billy!!!!!!
