Grammar, Usage / Quick Grammar Question Dealing with Roles in Plays [5]

If you are writing about a role that someone has played in a theatre performance, do you need to do anything special with the character's name??

John Doe portrayed Iago in the 1996 production of Othello.

John Doe portrayed "Iago" in the 1996 production of Othello.

Re: The script changes, but a role always stays the same, the name of the character remains the characters name remain so i would suggest the first example you wrote is the correct one.
