How far would YOU go to defend your family?

Bring the family and share the magic of Clara's fantastic journey through a land of snow and into a glittering candy land of sweet confections. If you think you know and have seen The Nutcracker, Kathleen Redwine of The Oklahoman sums it up best: "Under the artistic direction of Robert Mills, Oklahoma City Ballet's annual production of The Nutcracker just gets better and better".

Two actors take on all the roles in Charles Ludlam's high-camp comedy with dozens of lightning-quick costume changes. This sidesplitting spoof pokes fun at all that is ridiculous in Gothic horror, Victorian melodrama and classic movies, plus it’s a contender for the funniest American play of the last quarter-century.

Passion and poisonous lies run rampant in this highly charged tragedy of a love destroyed by jealousy. Shakespeare's legendary story reveals the power of suggestion as Iago undermines Othello in a twisted game of betrayal.

Oklahoma Shakespeare in the Park's production of OTHELLO runs September 13 - 29, 2012 at the Myriad Gardens Water Stage in downtown OKC with performances each Thursday, Friday and Saturday at 8:00PM.
