I’ll answer this publicly in case others are not aware of NT: Live.
National Theatre Live is the National Theatre’s great project that broadcasts productions live (but not always, as some countries like Australia received delayed broadcasts) from the London stage to cinemas across the UK and around the world.
You can found out more at the NT: Live website.
Othello is screening later this year.

So I just came across this news story this morning. If they’re not filming this production, they should. Stat! Pretty please? This Shakespeare-loving Whovian begs you.

Can’t wait ‘til I see this on Globe on Screen!

Still trying to work out if this is an April Fool’s joke. Orlando is a bit old for the role, isn’t he? Also inter-racial casting in R+J (or any other adaption of Shakespeare work) is neither radical nor ground-breaking (and I resent the writer making it seem controversial in the article). Inter-racial Romeos and Juliet have been played on stage and screen before, yet they’re not mentioned at all in the article (see the Globe’s Romeo and Juliet, and the recent touring production of the Broadway revival of West Side Story). This honestly sounds like it will be boring…and an attempt by the producers to cash in on Orlando Bloom’s fame.

Act 3, Scene 2 of the RSC production of The Winter’s Tale, directed by Lucy Bailey, with Tara Fitzgerald as Hermione and Jo Stone-Fewings as Leontes. Hermione’s great monologue, before she’s rendered silent for the rest if the play.
