    Higher English: Anyone doing Othello?
    Is anyone doing 'Othello' for the drama question? If so what question would you be hoping for? And how many quotes have you learnt?

    Relationships changing, I stay away from scene questions
    Jealousy is the green eyed monster which doth mock the meat it feeds on. Or something like that
    Nobody I myself farewell
    Honest Iago you advise me well
    Beshrew me should I do such a thing for the whole world
    Cuckold me!!!
    Etc etc :3

    I studied Othello way back when. The screen adaptations are pretty decent if you get to watch them.

    Yep i am

    I hope a question for Iago comes up as i find him easy to write about.

    TP = Turning point,, e.g key scene (act 3 scene 3)

    I hope for a change in relationship between Othello and Desdemona question or a change in othellos character question.

    I have learnt 18 quotes.

    im hoping for a thematic question- easiest one to do.
    on the destructive nature of jealousy
    or appearance versus reality
    i really like the play; lots of relatable characters

    We've watched the one with Morpheus from The Matrix films, which was alright
