LONG BRANCH — The New Jersey Repertory Company will stage James McLure’s “Iago” at 179 Broadway. Previews begin Aug. 25, and Opening Night is set for Aug. 27. The play will run through Sept. 25.
Backstage intrigue, romance and scandal take place during rehearsals of the Shakespeare classic “Othello,” which serves as the backdrop for this comedic drama. Three extraordinary actors at the top of their game along with a well-known director rehearse the passionate play as they whittle away at each other in this highly theatrical production.
The production is directed by SuzAnne Barabas with a cast that includes Ezra Barnes, John FitzGibbon, Todd Gearhart and Liza Vann.
