Michael Fentiman made his RSC directing debut with this production of Titus Andronicus. It played at the Swan Theatre in the summer season of 2013.
Audiences were shocked by the realistic, bloody effects in this production. And Michael also enlisted the help of Richard Pinner, a professional magician, to help create some of the visual effects which had audiences and critics giving this production a very warm response. Katy Stephens played Queen Tamora and Stephen Boxer played Titus.
