Titus Andarnicus: A Sock Puppet Play
The following description was submitted by the event organizer.
The Canon Shakespeare Company is proud to present its online, filmed production of TITUS ANDARNICUS: a darkly hilarious, 90-minute sock puppet version of Shakespeare's bloodiest revenge play, Titus Andronicus. Set in the Roman empire, Titus Andarnicus follows patriarch Titus as he returns home from successfully conquering the Goths. While he struggles to stay out of Roman political maneuverings, he is unaware that the Queen of the Goths — with the help of her lover, Aaron the Wool — will use whatever means necessary to seek revenge.
TITUS ANDARNICUS features five actors across three states playing all the parts, filming scenes from their homes. The finished product is composed of those scenes, edited by Genevieve Larson and set against backdrops drawn by the 4-year-old daughter of one of the performers. Script adaptation was created by Alec Henneberger.
