Desdemona: A Play about a Handkerchief
The Mint 116 South Main StreetDesdemona: A Play about a Handkerchief Presented by THE LIBERTY THEATRE COMPANY July 7-22 at The Mint in Hailey Written by Paula Vogel Directed by Veronica Moonhill Starring Audra Honaker, Tess Makena, and Aly Wepplo Tickets at LibertyTheatreCompany.org This rowdy, hysterical, feminist update on Othello is written by Paula Vogel, Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright of How I Learned to Drive, and serves as the perfect addition to summer fun in Hailey. As the wrongly accused and suffering wife of Shakespeare's tragic Moor, Othello, Desdemona has long been viewed as the "victim of circumstance." But as Paula Vogel demonstrates in her comic deconstruction of Shakespeare's play - aligning tongue-in-cheek humor while raising serious questions as to the role of women through the ages - Desdemona was far from the quivering naif we've all come to know. PERFORMANCES: July 7th - 8th at 7pm July 9th at 2pm and 7pm July 13th - 15th at 7pm July 16th at 2pm July 19th - 21st at 7pm July 22nd at 2pm TICKET PRICE: $30 General Admission $15 Student Fort tickets and season passes, call 208-582-8388, or visit LibertyTheatreCompany.org
