Arts Award Review: Heather Magee
On the 14th of March 2015, I went with my sister, my mum and a friend to the Globe Theatre in London to see a production of Shakespeare's Othello. The show itself was spectacular. There was live music and instruments playing throughout the play. I found it amazing how the actors flew down on zip wires. I think I understood the storyline and found it tragic at the end when Othello realised that Desdemona was innocent and that he had given in to jealousy. The performance also had a dance at the end. It was a slow tango which changed into a jive. The acting really impressed me. Iago's facial expressions worked well because they shoed the audience that he was not a good person. They used props very effectively to show what the scene was about. Overall, I thought it was amazing and I would love to go back to the beautiful Globe theatre. I have told all my friends how great it was and I have encouraged them to go and see a play there.
