Free live broadcast of LA Opera's Otello at Santa Monica Pier. Gather your blankets and lawn chairs, pack your picnic and come experience the music and drama of Otello under the stars. About Otello: Verdi meets Shakespeare in the crowning achievement of Italian opera. Hailed as the pinnacle of the Italian operatic repertoire, Verdi’s transformation of the original Shakespeare play is a powerful drama of uncontrolled human emotion at its most extreme. Verdi's musical portrait of Otello’s descent into a tortured heart of darkness is explicit in every chilling detail as he destroys all in life that he holds dear.

He's a beloved leader, a distinguished military commander and a devoted husband. But when an envious subordinate introduces the notion—just the slightest whispered hint—that Othello's wife Desdemona might possibly be unfaithful, it's enough to send him into a downward spiral of fury and murder.
