    First and foremost compliments for dissecting this complex masterpiece. I have to say that this has been very helpful for me. I'm working with the Berlin Philip Orchestra and we are using this play in combination with a composer and breaking it down like this has been very helpful. Thank you very much.

      I'm so happy to hear this. I love getting messages from artists who are looking to engage with Shakespeare (or other artists) in this sort of collaboration across time and space. When will the show perform? Maybe I'll go

      We’ve called the work puck. The idea is to bring differently able audiences together to experience classical music and we are doing that with the Berlin Symphony Orchestra there’s a wonderful composer, called Persille, who compose a piece, called the Queen fairy based on the play and so your analogy is been very helpful.

      Thank you for taking the time to say so... It means a lot. I'm finishing edits for a series on Othello which will be (hopefully) filmed, edited and posted sometime in October.
