Synopsis

William Shakespeare's tragedy "Othello", since 1604, when it was written, was often staged and became an eternal inspiration for artists who drew from this part the most diverse theses - feelings of passion, fear, jealousy... and the universality of these feelings allows them to be easily transferred to the present day, so that, like other works of Shakespeare, they cause catharsis in the creative expression of modern art.
The piece "Othello" balances on the edge of the archetypal passion of a male-female relationship, but also a sharp, unscrupulous political game, close to today's viewer. As such, he was intriguing to the authors of the play, who updated him and replicated his theses in the language of dance theater.
The event is set, both temporally and stylistically limited, in one night. One party. Othellosakrajabave? Endgame? The end of the party? Otello's characteristically tragic plot, more the result of intrigue and chance than the hubris of the protagonists' curse, treated with the refined means of dance theater, the apostrophe grows, loading at the same time non-modern symbols.
