Keith Hamilton Cobb
- Synopsis
- Podcast. An interview with Keith Hamilton Cobb about his Untitled Othello Project, in which he and nine actors explore Shakespeare’s play as well as the way it has been produced in the past with a view to making it more relevant. The project is described by Cobb thus: ‘Untitled Othello is for every theater-goer, every theater student and theater artist who never again wants to see another of Shakespeare’s plays stuffed through the sausage grinder of product-oriented American theater-making processes to be packaged and sold to the public, a mediocre, white-minded homogeneity masquerading as art.'
