newsmode Revue de presse
Othello est une tragédie de la jalousie, où Shakespeare pousse ses personnages aux limites de l’humain. La pièce, d’une actualité frappante, interroge aussi le racisme et la place de l’étranger dans la société.
Othello résonne avec des enjeux contemporains : féminicide, racisme, intégration. La pièce de Shakespeare, par son intensité dramatique et sa complexité psychologique, reste un miroir tendu à notre époque.
