About the show

Othello by William Shakespeare

Directed by Geoff O’Keeffe

At the dlr Mill Theatre, our Education and Outreach programs are at the heart of everything we do! We believe in the transformative power of theatre, not just as entertainment, but as a vital educational tool.

This year, we’re incredibly proud to present William Shakespeare’s powerful tragedy, Othello, directed by the brilliant Geoff O’Keeffe. This production is carefully curated to align with the Leaving Certificate curriculum, offering students an invaluable opportunity to engage deeply with Shakespeare’s timeless themes and language.

While Othello is a cornerstone for our school audiences, its magic isn’t just for students! We’re also thrilled to offer two public performances, giving everyone a chance to experience this compelling production. Tickets are on sale now – don’t miss out!

School Shows:  10am & 1:30pm (Monday- Friday). Book by emailing Box Office at [email protected]

Public Shows:  7:30pm (Saturday 19th & Saturday 3rd October). Book online or via Box Office.
