"The cast includes Jon Barker as Cassio, whose portrait of a man, loyal literally to the death, to his general,
is laced with humor and something that is refreshing, after the roiling darkness of Iago. In Barker’s hands,
Cassio is that truly good man--not perfect, but the right man for any of Othello's situations
and he's clearly on his way up."

"Jon Barker as Michael Cassio... is the picture of boyish innocence."

"There is plenty to relish as well in the performance(s) of...
