Otello: Deutsche Oper Berlin

About the Event

Experience Andreas Kriegenburg's vision of Verdi's Otello, conducted by Donald Runnicles at the Deutsche Oper Berlin. The renowned stage director envisions Otello as a drama depicting the fatal break‐up of a great love in a society conditioned by war.

The black Venetian war lord Othello, the prototype of a winner figure par excellence, husband of an able and undaunted young woman from a good family, is driven by jealousy to a state of fury that culminates in murder. Forced to recognise that he has been the victim of intrigue he kills himself as well and, dying, struggles to passionately kiss the dead body of his innocent beloved.
