Othello

OTHELLO: The moor of Venice
ACT 1
Begins in Venice with IAGO, a soldier under Othello's command arguing with Roderigo, a wealthy Venetian. RODERIGO has paid IAGO a considerable sum of money to spy on Othello for him, since he wishes to take Othello's girlfriend, Desdemona as his own. RODERIGO fears that IAGO has not been telling him enough
-RODERIGO - You told me you hated othello
-IAGO - Ido hate him, I swear. Because he choose a guy from Florence named Michael Cassio and he is his lieutenant I know I deserve that position

To regain RODERIGO's trust, IAGO and RODERIGO inform Brabantio, Desdemona's father of her relationship with Othello

-IAGO.- we arrived to mister Brabantio house
-roderigo- oh mister Brabantio
(brabantio appears above the window)
-brabantio.- what´s thematter there?
-IAGO- sir, did you know your daughter is not in the house? and also that she had married the moor.
-BRABANTIO- What kind of crude joke is this?
-IAGO - The kind that tells you that the Moor is with your daughter right now.
-RODERIGO- In the early hours of the morning your daughter left your house.
-BRABANTIO -! I’m starting to worry everyone wake up and look for DesdemonaBRABANTIO exits.
-IAGO - (to RODERIGO) It’s time for me to say goodbye to you. It would be inappropriate for me to be seen working against the Moor
IAGO exits. BRABANTIO enters with servants and torches
-BRABANTIO - It’s true. She’s gone. Tell me where did you see her?—Oh, I remember You say you saw her with the Moor
-RODERIGO - Yes, I really think so.
-BRABANTIO - Oh, God, My own daughterrebels against me!
-RODERIGO – that’s too bad sir.
-BRABANTIO - Now I wish you’d married her! Do you know where we can find her and the Moor?
-RODERIGO- Go ahead and follow me

They arrived, Othello is called away to discuss a crisis much to the anger of Brabantio who wants justice for what he has done to his daughter. Desdemona is brought in to settle the matter.
-BRABANTIO (talking toothello ) What do you have to say for yourself?
-OTHELLO Honorable gentlemen it’s true that I’ve taken this man’s daughter from him and married her. But if you’ll let me, I’ll explain you
- BRABANTIO Tell us, Othello.
-OTHELLO One day Desdemona said she loved me for the dangers I’d survived, and I loved her for feeling such strong emotions about me. Iago will bring her, he knows where she is.DESDEMONA and IAGO enter.

-BRABANTIO If she admits she wanted this, then I won’t blame Othello
-DESDEMONA I know. I owe you respect because you are my father But this man here is my husband now so I have to give my obedience to my husband.
When I fell in love with Othello I made up my mind that I wanted to live with him. I’d be miserable without him.

Roderigo exits.
-IAGO (alone) I willcontinue getting money from fools like Roderigo, I hate the Moor he choose Cassio instead of me. After a while I’ll start telling Othello that Cassio is too intimate with Desdemona. Othello is easy to manipulate. So it’s all decided.
