Titus Andronicus: The Musical !, written by Brian Colonna, Erik Edborg, Hannah Duggan, Erin Rollman, Evan Weissman, Matt Petraglia, and Samantha Schmitz, was staged by the Buntport Theater Company in Denver, Colorado four times between 2002 and 2007.
Staged as a band of travelling thespian players who are attempting to put on a serious production of Titus, and starring Brian Colonna as Titus, Erin Rollman as Tamora ( and Marcus ), Hannah Duggan as both Aaron and Lavinia ( when playing Aaron she wore a fake moustache ), Erik Edborg as Lucius and Saturninus, and Evan Weissman as Someone Who Will Probably Die ( he is killed over thirty times during the play ).
The piece was very much a farce, and included such moments as Lavinia singing an aria to the tune of " Oops !... I Did It Again " by Britney Spears, after her tongue has been cut out ; Saturninus and Lucius engaged in a swordfight, but both being played by the same actor ; Chiron and Demetrius ' played ' by a gas can and a car radio respectively ; the love child being born with a black moustache.
A number of critics noted that the play improved on Shakespeare's original, and several wondered what Harold Bloom would have made of it.
