Description:The story of Desdemona from Shakespeare's Othello is re-imagined by Nobel Prize laureate Toni Morrison, Malian singer and songwriter Rokia Traoré, and acclaimed stage director Peter Sellars.

Morrison gives voice and depth to the female characters, letting them speak and sing in the fullness of their hearts.
