SHAKESPEARE’S ONLY MUSICAL DRAMEDY

P.S. McGoldstein and his van-o-players take on the Bard’s bloodiest play!

So there we were one day brainstorming about show ideas. Someone suggested a musical, which struck most of us as particularly amusing, given our general lack of talent in the areas of singing or playing instruments. Always ready for a challenge – or, at the least, a good laugh – we promptly called up our friend Muni and told him he had to come out here to work with us again, but this time he had to write some music in order to adapt Titus Andronicus, the less-than-well-thought-out tragedy, into something you could tap your toes to. Why Titus? It has everything you want in a musical: dismemberment, decapitation, completely insane and/or very stupid characters, you get the idea.
