ABOUT
One of Shakespeare’s earliest plays and the most wildly popular hit of his lifetime, the story follows Titus (Nigel Gore) and his triumphant return to Rome from ten years of war with the intent to live out his final days in peace and tranquility. He brings Tamora, Queen of the Goths, her Black lover, Aaron, and her three sons home as his prisoners and per Roman custom, sacrifices the eldest son to the gods. This begins a revenge cycle that swallows everyone- man, woman, child and leaves no one unscathed.
This production is available for streaming on demand.
