A Nigerian re-working of Shakespeare's Othello, this is an
ambitious effort in the tradition of much contemporary Nigerian
drama and spirit of cultural exchange to translate the timeless and
classic work into the language, cultural reality and settingof the
Igbo people. Yerima's play responds to the humanistic values,
social and religious sensibilities of the original, reinventing
them to speak for different people of a different age. From these
perspectives, the play raises questions about the freedom of the
individual in society, the nature of collective existence, and
whether folly and greatness, jealousy, suspicion, tradition and
love can co-exist.
