The Moor's pavane

"The basic story of the Moor, Othello, presented in dance form through many variations, shows the destructive power of jealousy. The choreography features the Renaissance style of dance to coordinate with the story, music and costumes."@en
"Based on William Shakespeare's play Othello."
"Modern dance work based on William Shakespeare's tragedy Othello, and set to music by Benjamin Britten. This tape contains three almost complete performances, followed by excerpts. Because of the need to change film reels, there is a gap in each performance, occurring at a different point in the action. The first and third performances are shot from central vantage points; the second from the stage left side of the auditorium. Most of the excerpts are close shots. The choreography is sometimes difficult to discern because of the low-level stage lighting."
"The basic plot of Othello told in the form of a pavane."@en
"Performance preceded by bows by Nureyev and others in costume for Nijinsky's version of Afternoon of a faun."
