Othello Workshop

About This Project

Suba Das, Producer

About: This grant was awarded to support a research and development process in collaboration with Broadway Theatre Barking and Circus Space to remount a successful site-specific production of Othello. The grant allowed the process to be captured on film and covered the fee for a parkour expert to give guidance to the performers.

Outcomes: Having received a very positive response from industry leaders and young audiences, the intention is to plan a tour for this reworked version of Othello to venues across the UK. A discussion about an Edinburgh Fringe Festival run is also under way.

“We believe the impact the KSF grant has had to be invaluable in securing partners to take the work further over the coming year.”
