Watch Titus Andronicus on January 3rd, and finish reading on January 10th

There’s a wonderful exchange in the play Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead by Tom Stoppard. During the play-within-a-play Guildenstern asks “Wasn’t that the end?” The Player King responds “You call that an ending? With practically everyone still on his feet? My goodness, no — over your dead body!” That’s how you know when a Shakespeare play is over: by the body count!

We’ll be stacking them like cordwood for the new year, when we first watch the BBC version of the tragedy of Titus Andronicus on January 3rd beginning at 7:30pm, and then finish reading on January 10th at 7pm. Both will be on Zoom.

As another character once said, “When the players are all dead, there needs none to be blamed.” Leave a message below if you want an invitation to the Zoom meeting. All nationalities welcome, and no experience necessary!
