Jealousy, ambition and manipulation collide in a new production of Othello at the Stratford Festival. Under the direction of Haysam Kadri , Shakespeare's devastating tragedy arrives on the Tom Patterson stage in a production charged with urgency, passion and emotional intensity. Led by Evan Buliung as the manipulative Iago, Krystin Pellerin as Desdemona and André Sills as Othello, this electrifying staging draws audiences into a world where desire and suspicion entwine and where love becomes vulnerable to the corrosive power of deceit.

At the centre of Shakespeare's classic tragedy is Othello, a celebrated military leader whose profound love for his wife, Desdemona, is slowly poisoned by the manipulative schemes of the embittered Iago. As insinuations take root and trust begins to fracture, certainty gives way to paranoia, setting in motion one of the most heartbreaking downfalls in dramatic literature. Through its searing exploration of race, power, vulnerability and perception, Othello remains one of Shakespeare's most psychologically penetrating and hauntingly resonant plays.

Othello features Jordin Hall as Cassio, Jessica B. Hill as Emilia and Rylan Wilkie as Roderigo, with Sarah Dodd , Thomas Duplessie, Vivien Endicott-Douglas as Bianca, 郝邦宇 Steven Hao, Michael Louis Johnson , Josh Johnston , Cyrus Lane as Montano, Tarique Lewis, Angel Lo, Devin MacKinnon, Mike Nadajewski as Gratiano, Anthony Palermo, Irene Poole as Lodovica, Chick Reid as Brabantia and Michael Spencer -Davis as the Duke of Venice.

Kadri is joined by Set Designer Brian Dudkiewicz , Costume Designer Gillian Gallow, Lighting Designer Siobhán Sleath and Composer and Sound Designer Thomas Ryder Payne.

Othello officially opens on June 19, 2026 and runs until September 27, 2026 at the Tom Patterson Theatre.
