Othello kicks off The Porters of Hellsgate's ninth season, with Artistic Director Charles Pasternak returning to the boards with them for the first time since his award-nominated performance as Henry V just one year ago. The production runs now through March 28, 2015.

Since Henry V, Pasternak has worked with The Shakespeare Center of Los Angeles in The Merchant of Venice, The Shakespeare Festival of St. Louis in Henry IV and Henry V, Indiana Repertory Theatre in The Two Gentlemen of Verona, and most recently with The Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey in Much Ado About Nothing.

Othello will star Porters' Artistic Director Charles Pasternak as Iago, with resident artists Matt Calloway in the title role and Eliza Kiss as Desdemona. Associate Artistic Director Thomas Bigley returns to the director's seat for the first time since his lauded King Lear in 2013.

Othello opens on Saturday, February 28th at 8pm at The Whitmore Theatre, 11006 Magnolia Blvd, North Hollywood, CA 91601. The production plays Fridays and Saturdays at 8pm for five weeks through Saturday, March 28th, as well as at 7pm on Sunday, March 1st, and at 2pm on Sundays, March 8th, 15th, and 22nd.
