众人站在一起等待，旁白：“前任总督蒙塔诺、威尼斯绅士、副官、士官及岛上的男女青年，聚集在塞普路斯的海港码头，等待迎接从海上征战回来的将军奥泰罗。傍晚时刻，海上雷电交加、狂风暴雨，大家在担心和祈祷中……”

（灯光效果：暗。背景音效：狂风暴雨，闪电雷鸣。）

Aside: The former governor Montano, Lieutenant [lef'tenənt] Cassio, Desdemona and her servant Emilia, and soldiers and local residents on the island are gathering on the harbour of Cyprus to wait and welcome their general Othello who just fought a battle on the sea. It is at dusk, there are lightning accompanied by claps of thunder on the sea. Everyone is worried and praying for their general.

蒙太诺Montano ：Can you see any ship at sea?

罗德利哥Roderigo：Nothing, sir! What a heavy fog! I can’t see anything.

苔丝狄蒙娜Desdemona：I hope every thing goes well, god blesses my lord.——Othello.

爱米利娅Emilia：Oh, Lady, don’t worry, god blesses good man.

罗德利哥Roderigo : Look! A ship.

爱米利娅Emilia：Look, that is Othello! Our new governor——Thank goodness!

(奥瑟罗Othello伊阿古Iago, 卡西奥Cassio，军官乙Second Gentleman上)

（灯光：亮：音效：无）

奥瑟罗Othello: Ha ha ha ha! Good News, Gentlemen! The war is over. The Turks had to give up their attacking plan; their ships were destroyed by the storm.

蒙太诺Montano: I am glad to hear that, it is a worthy governor.

奥瑟罗Othello: Oh! My deer!

苔丝狄蒙娜Desdemona：Oh! My lord!

奥瑟罗Othello: Wine! Let’s have a drink.

(欢快轻柔的背景音乐起，众人三五成群，互相祝贺，军官拿酒上来，众人开始畅饮，欢声笑语不断……

只有罗德利哥Rodrigo一人站在一旁闷闷不乐，不时看着美丽的苔丝狄蒙娜，不住的唉声叹气。伊阿古Iago看到此情此景，走上前来。）

伊阿古Iago: My deer friend Rodrigo, what are you thinking about?

罗德利哥Rodrigo: I want to drown myself.

伊阿古Iago: Stupid, you want to kill yourself just for a woman.

罗德利哥Rodrigo: I don’t care about anything, even my life.

伊阿古Iago: I know you love Desdemona; I’m your honest friend. I will help you with my wisdom. I promise this woman will be yours. I hate Othello, do you know why? Look, there, that handsome gentlemen, he took my place, I should be assistant general, but he is.

(这时候卡西奥Cassio走了过来)

伊阿古Iago: Hi, Cassio, come, have a drink.

卡西奥Cassio: Sorry, man, I can not drink any more.

伊阿古Iago : Come on, just a cup.

卡西奥Cassio : No, I have drunk a lot.

伊阿古Iago : Please, for Othello and Desdemona.

伊阿古Iago (to Rodrigo) let him drink as much as he can, then he will be dazed.

罗德利哥Rodrigo: Why?

伊阿古Iago : Just do it, ok? Trust me, I’m helping you.

(To Cassio) Come on, my friend; moisten ['moisn] your throat, and drink it with the songs.

卡西奥Cassio : Oh, it tastes not too bad, it
