PRESS

OTELLO

In this new production of Verdi's most exciting works of opera, Twist collaborates with director Adrian Noble and set designer Dick Bird. Their previous collaboration was the spectacular Kate Bush "Before The Dawn" concert. A storm opens Otello and we see a ship in chaos on tumultuous seas. Twist's signature magic of abstractions, shadows and other suggestions bring this threat to life.

Premiere June 20th - June 30th
