TITUS ANDRONICUS synopsis: Returning to Rome from a war against the Goths, the general Titus Andronicus (William Houston) brings with him the queen Tamora (Indira Varma) and her three sons as prisoners of war. Titus’ sacrifice of Tamora’s eldest son to appease the ghosts of his dead sons, and his decision to refuse to accept the title of emperor, initiates a terrible cycle of mutilation, rape and murder. And all the while, at the center of the nightmare, there moves the villainous, self-delighting Aaron (Obi Abili). Grotesquely violent and daringly experimental, Titus Andronicus was the smash hit of Shakespeare’s early career, and is written with a ghoulish energy he was never to repeat elsewhere. This production, recorded earlier in 2015, revisits Lucy Bailey’s spectacular Globe production of 2006 and has caused a stir throughout the U.K. media with staged violence so realistic that some audience members have fainted.

CAST: Obi Abili, Steffan Donnelly, Dyfan Dwyfor, Samuel Edward-Cook, Ian Gelder, Paul Ham, Ethan Hammer, William Houston, Nicholas Karimi, Jake Mann, Brian Martin, Matthew Needham, Bryonie Pritchard, David Shaw-Parker, Flora Spencer-Longhurst, Indira Varma, Jaime Wilkes, Jude Willoughby
