Harlem duet
Harlem duet | Djanet Sears
2 posts | 1 read | 1 to read
Winner of the Governor General's Award for Drama. Winner of the Chalmers Play Award. A rhapsodic blues tragedy. Harlem Duet could be the prelude to Shakepeare's Othello, and recounts the tale of Othello and his first wife Billie (yes, before Desdemona). Set in contemporary Harlem at the corner of Martin Luther King and Malcolm X boulevards, the play explores the space where race and sex intersect. Harlem Duet is Billie's story.

I love this play, about a woman left behind (and so much more). I think Billie would love to sing #YouOughtaKnow to Othello.

"If I don't forgive my enemy, if I don't forgive him, he might just set up house, inside me."
