Sublimely twisted and infinitely captivating, Joffrey Ballet returns to the stage with encore performances of Lar Lubovitch’s three-act ballet. Based on Shakespeare’s classic tragedy of passion, jealousy, ambition and betrayal, the story pits the scheming Iago against Othello. Lubovitch’s expressive, contemporary choreography combines with a score by Oscar-winner Elliot Goldenthal, performed by The Chicago Philharmonic. Cutting-edge stage design, elaborate projections and breathtaking costumes add to Joffrey’s riveting production. These will be the final performances of this critically acclaimed ballet before Joffrey retires it from their active repertory.
