RSC Live Titus Andronicus (12A) (Supper Club Event)

@ The Witham

Book Now

The decay of Rome reaches violent depths in Shakespeare’s most bloody play.

Titus is a ruler exhausted by war and loss, who relinquishes power but leaves Rome in disorder. Rape, cannibalism and severed body parts fill the moral void at the heart of this corrupt society.

Shakespeare’s gory revenge tragedy presents us with murder as entertainment, and, as the body count piles up, poses questions about the nature of sexuality, family, class and society.

Blanche McIntyre returns to the RSC to direct Shakespeare’s brutal revenge tragedy after her debut directing The Two Noble Kinsmen (2016).

Food will be served from 6pm. Tonight’s Supper Club will be sausage casserole. A vegetarian option is available. Please let us know if they are any other dietary requirements in your group.
