146 - your production of hamlet can't have been any worse than our production of Othello. We had only one guy on the course that fit the ethnical requirements for the roll. With four weeks to go he was only turning up for one of the four rehearsals we had every week. Our course tutor knew two other actors that fit the bill, they were both unavailable.
*The course tutor mentioned one of the actors had been in Fair City, but was unavailable because he was filming a movie at the time.
We were in Ireland, we don't have a large black population, let alone a large population of black actors. We had to go with an Irish guy....wearing make-up (I know this would be a serious no-no in the US).
The actor playing Othello was bald and was wearing a hat so he only put make-up on the visible parts of his head. Of course, during one performance he went on stage without the hat...
Another performance during the bed chamber scene (I was on the stage as Montano) the audience started laughing and I spotted one of my fellow actors furiously trying to kick a packet of cigarettes (which had fallen out of Iago's pocket) under the bed (at least it wasn't a mobile phone).
Another performance - there are two entrances onto the stage, on the front left of the stage and the right side of the back wall. During rehearsals for the fight between Cassio and Roderigo, Cassio drove Roderigo onto the stage from the LEFT. During the performance Roderigo takes it into his head that he's supposed to come in from the back entrance, of course Cassio's at the correct entrance which is the left, cue Pat's annoyed (and audible to the audience) hissed whisper of "Brian, over here!"
The biggest FAIL of the performance was an actor named Trevor. Everyone bar him was wearing costumes sourced off eBay, Othello was wearing a handsome doublet from Museum Replicas (I think?), we all had very nice linen-esque shirts and some ladies in our college knocked off tabards (based on a tabard (sp?) I had bought as a lot of three Stargate SG1 extras costumes off eBay) and I got pirate pants off eBay. The ladies' costumes were hired. All the male characters had tabards over clothes, whilst perhaps not being specific to the period in question, that would look convincing to the audience.
Trevor wore his tabard over JEANS AND TRAINERS AND A SCRUFFY TSHIRT.
I'd feel pretty safe in saying it probably ranked up there as one of the worst productions of Othello ever.
*After I watched the movie Mamma Mia I checked some of the actors' pages on imdb.com. The actor who played Pepper had only one other project listed other than Mamma Mia - Fair City.
It looks like he was one of the actors our course tutor tried to get, and I think its a damn shame he wasn't available because he's fucking hot (and a good actor to boot)
