No play in William Shakespeares oeuvre is as polarizing as his first tragedy, Titus Andronicus. This harrowing tale follows the titular Roman general, who returns home after a brutal decade-long campaign against the Goths, only to reject the emperorship and ignite a horrific cycle of vengeance. When Titus orders the execution of Tamora, Queen of the Goths eldest son, he sets off a chain reaction of violence that spirals into a nightmarish symphony of bloodshed and retribution, as both Titus and Tamora are engulfed in their own tragic flaws. Shakespeare skillfully draws on the revenge tragedy tradition exemplified by contemporaries like Thomas Kyd and Christopher Marlowe, delivering a spectacle that has fascinated and horrified audiences for centuries. Whether you align with critics like T.S. Eliot, who deemed it one of the stupidest and most uninspired plays ever written, or artists like Julie Taymor, who believes it to be the most relevant of Shakespeares plays for the modern era, one thing is certain Titus Andronicus provokes visceral and complex reactions that only a masterful mind can evoke. Join our talented cast—three men (Craig Franklin, Tomas Peter, and Brad “Hamlet” Filippone) and three women (Sonia, Jenn Broda, and Kelly S. Taylor)—as they bring this controversial work to life in a performance that promises to be unforgettable. Think you know Shakespeare?
