Titus Andronicus
Closing: May 03, 2026Titus Andronicus - 2026 Off-Broadway History , Info & More
Revenge is on the menu.
Titus is Rome’s greatest general and the head of a noble family. But when his armies vanquish the Goths, their defeated queen Tamora and her lover Aaron the Moor release a fury that brings Titus, his family, and all of Rome to their knees. The play’s exploration of humankind's capacity for inhumanity is shockingly contemporary, brought to searing new life in a production directed by Jesse Berger and starring the incomparable Patrick Page as Titus, one of Shakespeare’s most demanding tragic roles.

FEATURED REVIEWS FOR Titus Andronicus
Titus Andronicus: Bloody All Right
6 / 10
This plotline of villains and deceptions twists with surprises, so small wonder the tone of this modest Red Bull revival often shifts with it, from the formality of a military ceremony all the way over into grim, farcical business involving severed body parts and a monstrous pie. Treating such lurid doings mostly for dark comedy, Jesse Berger, the director, keeps the two-act show’s pacing quick and the emotional temperature reasonably cool with one single jarring exception: A violent assault upon the screaming Lavinia by Chiron and Demetrius is vigorously depicted by the three actors with a physical actuality that’s horrifying to witness.
Titus Andronicus: Goths, Romans, Countrymen, Lend Me Your Spears
6 / 10
A few of director Jesse Berger’s choices are inspired—e.g., portraying Chiron and Demetrius as beer-pounding, tracksuit-wearing, back-slapping frat bros who are so odious that you’ll be counting the minutes until their well-deserved murder and mutilation. You might be surprised to discover that Titus has a sister, Marcia (a wonderful Enid Graham); usually it’s a brother named Marcus. It’s a smart, sympathetic switch, especially considering that Marcia is the one who discovers the bruised, bloodied Lavinia and brings her to her father. And when it comes to Shakespeare’s villains (or heroes), it’s tough to do better than Page, who’s played just about every Shakespeare villain and hero there is to play, not to mention the devil himself in Hadestown.
