The article deals with changes in creating scenography for productions of operas based on plays by William Shakespeare in former Czechoslovakia and the Czech Republic after 1989. The article discusses the procedure of a multimodal analysis of scenography based on blending theory approach. The 1991 production of Verdi's Otello of the Prague State Opera directed by Dominik Neuner and revived in 2009 by Lubor Cukr is used as an example of creating scenographic space for operatic Shakespeare. The scenography is understood as not only visual but multimodal component of theatrical performance. Vladimír Nývlt's concept of scenography for the Otello production is treated from the perspectives of multimodal analysis and examined in the context of other productions of operatic Shakespeare in the Czech Republic after 1989.

The article deals with the stage metaphors of Verdi's Otello with particular interest in the 1967 Brno production, directed by Miloš Wasserbauer. The main metaphor discussed is that of containment. The author compares Wasserbauer's interpretation with former and later productions depicting the main stage metaphors. The first part of the article deals with the stage metaphors inherent in both Boito's libretto of Otello and in Shakespeare's Othello. The second part of the article focuses on essential elements of staging which are rooted in Otello (including the score). The third part analyses the staging practice of Otello with special regard to Wasserbauer's production. The methodological apparatus of the article is inspired by the Conceptual Metaphor Theory (CMT).
