Short Desc Fifteenth video interview clip with Theatre Designer Ralph Koltai
Description Othello with Terry Hands, but it was an interesting experiment, it's also in the book. I enjoyed doing it, it was technically quite complex and difficult to be certain it was going to work technically, because there was quite sophisticated built-in lighting and so on which I wasn't 100% certain that it was going to work. It did work, visually, what it had to do was Othello I hadn't the foggiest idea, you could just as well done the Duchess of Murphy in it, you know, it would just as valid or invalid but I got pushed actually by Terry into being a little bit outrageous. So I thought OK, I'll be a little outrageous. I enjoyed doing it but as I've just said, I think it's a long way off being a definative Othello.
