William Shakespeare’s Play & Poem

Titus Andronicus

Shakespeare’s bloodiest play. Set during the latter days of the Roman Empire, Titus Andronicus tells the fictional story of Titus, a general in the Roman army, who is engaged in a vicious cycle of revenge withTamora, Queen of the Goths. Directed by BAFTA award winning Director Kenny Glenaan, and re-imagined in contemporary Northern Ireland, Titus Andronicus will be performed by a cast of professional and local, emerging non-professional actors.

The Rape of Lucrece

Shakespeare’s tragic poem The Rape of Lucrece, a terrible tale of lust, rape and politics, is both beautiful and violent. From political chronicle to sexual thriller, the poem’s exquisite tragedy is fully revealed in an hypnotic evening of song and storytelling. In this compelling and provocative performance by the internationally acclaimed singer Camille O’Sullivan, with original music played live by Feargal Murray, Camille inhabits the souls of both Tarquin and Lucrece, narrating the fate of each.
