His Desdemona is the brilliant young actress Uta Hagen. Her husband, the Broadway star José Ferrer, plays Iago.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAll the actors are friends. But in mid-century American society, they are not all equals.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAs the tour goes on, the boundaries between the onstage passions and their offstage lives begin to blur.
