About this listen

The noble Titus returns victorious to Rome bringing Tamora, Queen of the Goths as his captive. When one of Tamora's sons is condemned to die, she vows revenge, and, aided by the villainous Aaron, she exacts a terrible retribution, inaugurating a grim cycle of rape, murder, and cannibalism. This macabre, often brilliant tragedy comes from the earliest stage of Shakespeare's dramatic career.

Titus is played by David Troughton and Tamora by Harriet Walter. Paterson Joseph is Aaron, and David Burke is Marcus.

A gruesome play, which shows that Tarantino is not new. The performances made it a compelling study in the power of a desire for revenge and the terrible effects that emotion produces.

Gruesome but compelling

Found this quite hard to listen to as it is so relentlessly gruesome. Nevertheless it is faultlessly produced and another triumph in this series.

A harrowing tale.

Always wanted to hear this. One of Shakespeares most insightful works. Revenge is a downward spiral to madness though not an easily set aside emotion

One to tick off the classic reading list
