From Bill Harris of Sun Media:
Zaib Shaikh is known as Amaar on Little Mosque on the Prairie, but for tonight’s adaptation of Othello on CBC, he is co-writer, director, and executive producer. Matthew Deslippe, who was recently seen on Across the River to Motor City, plays Iago and is also an executive producer. Listen now to their thoughts on why Othello is relevant today, Carlo Rota in the title role, their pride in Canadian productions, and even what’s next for Little Mosque on the Prairie:
This Sunday on TV, eh? Blogtalkradio show, join Zaib Shaikh (co-writer/director, also Amaar on Little Mosque on the Prairie) and Matthew Deslippe (Iago, also Frank Calasso on Across the River to Motor City) to chat about their adaptation of Shakespeare’s Othello.
Listen live at 11 am Pacific/2 pm Eastern (call in with your questions at 646- 200-4063) or catch the podcast afterwards.
