The Society for the Destitute Presents Titus Bouffonius

By Colleen Murphy

Five characters who shelter at the Society For The Destitute get a $500 grant and decide to perform Shakespeare's bloodiest tragedy, Titus Andronicus. Shocking, outrageous, and wonderfully funny, the characters often forget their lines, or forget what play they are in, or refuse to stay dead when they are killed. An inspired marriage of Shakespearean text and the French clown technique of bouffon, Colleen Murphy's play is an unflinching look at war, rage and grief through characters who yearn for beauty in a grotesque world.
