Day 92: New Play Tuesday! Titus Andronicus

Titus Andronicus wordle from SCC English
So based on the word cloud, one could assume that Titus Andronicus is a very polite play. Lots of "thous" and "thys," people's names used a lot, words like "sweet," "come," "enter" and "speak" cropping up. 

One would be wrong.

Titus Andronicus is a nightmare of carnage and flesh-eating. Based on the description, I'm pretty sure it's an ancient Roman version of the South Park episode "Scott Tenorman Must Die." Remember that? Times a million and you have Titus Andronicus

Eric Cartman licking Scott Tenorman's tears after making him eat a bowl of chili containing flesh from his parents. Holy shit.
