Prenzie is pleased to announce that John Turner, a long-standing member of the Prenzie Players, will be teaching "Shakespeare as Splatterpunk"-- an inside look into Titus Andronicus, our next show in our tenth season.
18 Shakespeare as Splatterpunk: Understanding Titus Andronicus
John Turner, Scott Community College
A raped and mutilated daughter, carrying her father’s severed hand
between her teeth? This is not Masterpiece Theater! Shakespeare’s
goriest, most politically incorrect, and first really successful play,
soon to be produced in the Quad Cities, deserves explanation and
respect. Some guest lecturers and we'’ll watch Titus.
The class will take place on Sundays in February. You can register for the class by visiting
http://www.communiversity.org/
and for the form visit http://www.communiversity.org/registration.pdf
Members of the class will also be invited to experience the Prenzie take on Titus!

QCTimes Review
November 21st, 2011
The wealthy merchant Orgon has naively become the benefactor of the religious zealot Tartuffe. Orgon's household is convinced that Tartuffe is a phony and has swindled the merchant. So completely, that Tartuffe may end up driving out the son, marrying the daughter, seducing the wife, and imprisoning Orgon himself.
The show is directed by Jeremy Mahr (ably assisted by Catie Osborn), who last helmed the Prenzie production of Taming of the Shrew.
