Elizabeth Ledo as Lavinia and Timothy Edward Kane as Titus (Michael Brosilow).

by William Shakespeare
Adapted and Directed by Charles Newell

January 10 – February 10, 2008

Roman general Titus Andronicus returns home in triumph, but with a perilous war trophy—Tamora, queen of the Goths. Her presence in Rome sets in motion a cycle of envy and vengeance that ensnares slaves and emperors alike. Artistic Director Charles Newell adapts and directs Shakespeare’s riveting tale of jealousy and revenge creating a contemporary setting that lends depth and emotional significance to the horrific cycle of violence that defines the world of Titus Andronicus. Charlie’s new adaptation is a modern saga of privilege and entitlement brimming with aggression that is just a facade . . . or is it?
