PREVIEW SHOWS

Be among the first to experience Othello at The Nutshell. Join us for our preview performances on 4 & 5 March and step inside this gripping, up-close retelling of one of William Shakespeare’s most devastating tragedies.

Previews offer a unique chance to see the production as it takes shape, allowing the creative team to see audience reactions and make changes before the show officially opens. Your presence helps shape the final performances.

Expect powerful storytelling, intimate staging, and a night of theatre that puts you right at the heart of the drama.

“Put out the light, and then put out the light.”

At the height of his power, Othello is Venice’s greatest general - respected, unstoppable, and newly married to the passionately loyal Desdemona. But in promoting another to be his trusted lieutenant, Othello has unknowingly created a deadly enemy - his overlooked, underestimated, and quietly venomous advisor, the duplicitous Iago. What follows is a furious unravelling of trust, love, and identity in a web of betrayal, manipulation and revenge.

In a world that punishes vulnerability and devours beauty, Discarded Nut rips into Shakespeare’s most devastating tragedy, exposing razor-sharp insights on toxic power, race, and human fallibility. Visually arresting, brutally honest, and emotionally explosive, Othello is a fearless exploration of what happens when we’re driven to the edge.
