When Austin Shakespeare announced that their 2013-2014 season would feature a production of Othello, my immediate response was "Why?" After all, Austin's City Theatre produced the show just last season, and it was, as I mentioned in my review, "the highlight of the City Theatre's season."

To enhance the audience experience, after every performance of Austin Shakespeare's Othello, we will have a 'Talk Back' with actors, director and on selected days special speakers.
