QMC Performing Arts Presents-
Shakespeare's Titus Andronicus
The 2nd year extended diploma students perform Shakespeare's first play which was a pot boiler of a revenge tragedy designed to provide lots of theatrical spectacle to entertain a rowdy Elizabethan audience. Titus returns to Rome from a 10 year war with the Goths intent of retiring from his duties as a strong military leader. However, Rome is in political turmoil and following Caesar's death, his two sons vie to take on the mantel of Emperor. Can Titus finally find his peace in a tumultuous Rome?
