The Hungarian State Opera will perform the tragedy 'Othello', the product of Giuseppe Verdi, one of the greatest opera composers, adapting William Shakespeare, perhaps the greatest playwright. It's the story of the consummate villain Iago, who fools the hero, a Moor general named Othello, into believing that his wife Desdemona has been unfaithful with Othello's lieutenant Cassio. When Othello is overcome by jealous rage, he wreaks as much carnage as any Italian opera fan could possibly want.
