Titus Andronicus
By William Shakespeare | Directed by Katie McGunagle '14
April 26-28, May 3-5, 2012 | Class of 1970 Theater at Whitman
Returning victoriously from war, Titus Andronicus faces a new Rome in which revenge confronts republican justice in a fast-paced display of violence, despair, and power corrupt. Rape, dismemberment, cannibalism, lust, and metamorphosis: Titus Andronicus provides a poignantly modern commentary on the exhibitionism of violence, the politics of barbarism, and the deep sensitivities that lie in all of us. And it all occurs within a place where Roman virtue becomes what it was perhaps always meant to become: a wilderness of tigers.
A Midsummer Night's Dream
By William Shakespeare | Directed by Joseph Labatt '14
Reunions, May 31, June 1-2, 2012 | Butler Ampitheatre
To escape an arranged marriage and threat of death, two star-crossed lovers set out for freedom, but along the way their love and very lives are threatened by mortal jealousies and the intervention of fantastic forces beyond their understanding. Murders are threatened, curses are cast, and reality itself comes into question.
Oh, and it's one of Shakespeare's most famous comedies. Wait, what?
