BECOMING OTHELLO: A Black Girl's Journey Announced At Richmond Shakespeare
Becoming Othello is a personal, poignant and powerful story of perseverance, tragedy, triumph—and ultimately unconditional love.
Richmond Shakespeare Festival presents BECOMING OTHELLO: A Black Girl's Journey, written & Performed by Debra Ann Byrd, Founding Artistic Director of New York's Harlem Shakespeare Festival.
Becoming Othello is a personal, poignant and powerful story of perseverance, tragedy, triumph-and ultimately unconditional love. A victory story of making it against all odds.
Through rhyme, meter, moving multimedia images, lyrical language, and soulful songs, this choreo-poem chronicles the life of classical actress, Debra Ann Byrd; her trials and triumphs with race and the classics; and her gender-flipped journey on the road to becoming Shakespeare's noble flawed general Othello.
