“Another detail showing Othello’s mental decay is his uniform. In the beginning, Othello is the picture of military excellence, buttoned down and trimmed up. As he slides toward rage and madness, he loses parts of his uniform and becomes increasingly disheveled.

Ryan Scott Long’s costume designs are an important part of the play. The male characters wear stiff, formal, modern uniforms, juxtaposed with Desdemona and Emilia’s soft, flowing pieces. The women are almost out of place in this hard, dark, militaristic environment.”
