Ten Thousand Things

So easy to click and so important to continue the great work of TTT.

Do it. Go see it. Thanks to the artists for a wonderfully harrowing night of theatre last night!

I''llbe there Sat. night, looking forward to it!

What a fabulous production!

A fantastic, riveting, deeply worthy production of Othello. Thanks TTT and amazing cast for your beautiful talent and for your good work in our world.

Thank you for giving us your feedback. We love hearing from our patrons!

TTT never disappoints AND you are a gift to our community--wow.

Thanks for our support! Let us know what you think of the show.

See below... my other teenager adds that Othello was tragic with its betrayals and deaths, but "that other one you took us to" [Endgame] "was really much sadder." I think this is so true and very perceptive for someone who's only 18!

Last night I was just reacting emotionally to the story, which always happens with TTT shows... you have to ... See Morerecover from that initial "Ooomph!" before you can start thinking about technique. But three technical things that were brilliant were, first, the way that everyone moved ---- they stood either way apart, suspicious and alienated --- or "in your face" close, passionately violent (or, briefly, in passionate kisses). I don't remember seeing much of any "neutral ground". Which fed the story. Second, the music/sound matrix which was more like a film score than anything you will usually see in a play because, without realizing it's happened, you begin to know by sound cues just when Iago is about to add another layer of awfulness to his schemes. Three, how the actors change so much physically as their power waxes or wanes (or for Christiana Clark and Kimberly Richardson, as they change into a different person)... Othello, for instance, seems to shrink while Desdemona becomes tall and still, and Iago just puffs up like an adder, brrrrrr....

One seat remaining.

Pam: Additional tickets for the free show on Oct 26 (next Monday) just became available.

It is too real, watching terrifying psychopathic puppetmaster Iago hook and tear open the tiny flaws in each of these good people -- Othello's jealous (racism-reactant) insecurity; Desdemona's earnest insistence on being influential; her maid's "go along to get along" subservience. No wonder someone at one of the prison shows said this was her ... See Morestory. It reminds me of my mom not wanting to go to see the movie 'Sophie's Choice' with a particular friend because "she's someone who doesn't believe that sort of thing could ever happen." I saw Othello with the right friends, who know it can. My daughter asked, "Why does Iago hate Othello so much? I get that the other guy got the promotion... and he suspects Othello of messing with his wife... but it seems out of proportion." Yep. Kinda like the neo-Nazis in the Southern Poverty Law Center Intelligence Report. Blind crazy hatred always does seem out of proportion, purely destructive, chaotic, dystopic. All the good guys die and the bad guy never repents. Want something hopeful, a phoenix rising from these ashes? Most plays, most TTT, hand you that little present... This time, you have to go pray for it or create it, or somehow go on living without it. Glad I saw this on a Saturday night and am planning to go to church tomorrow to think some more about this. Be careful out there. There are forces of evil, and they don't always lose. This was an intense and difficult birthday gift but it is good to be reminded that people we love are perishable treasures. Sometimes we even need to protect them from ourselves.

I have tickets for 10/23. Very excited.

Thanks for letting us know. We love hearing from our fans.
