The program is announced as the first radio dramatization of the play. + This two part adaptation of Shakespeare’s Othello was produced and directed by Elliott Lewis using the original dialogue and casting three actors in the leading roles who had never played Shakespeare before. One being himself as Othello referred to as the Moor by Brabantio, Desdemona's father, who uses “Moor” as a derogatory name for Othello, Lewis's then wife Cathy Lewis as Desdemona and Richard Widmark as Iago. Othello and Desdemona marry and attempt to build a life together, despite their differences in age, race, and experience.
