Titus is a ruler exhausted by war and loss, who relinquishes power but leaves Rome in disorder. Rape, cannibalism and severed body parts fill the moral void at the heart of this corrupt society. Shakespeare s gory revenge tragedy presents us with murder as entertainment, and, as the body count piles up, poses questions about the nature of sexuality, family, class and society. Blanche McIntyre returns to the RSC after her debut directing The Two Noble Kinsmen (2016). Film: Boss Baby (U) A new baby s arrival impacts a family, told from the point of view of a delightfully unreliable narrator a wildly imaginative 7-year-old named Tim. The most unusual Boss Baby (Alec Baldwin) arrives at Tim s home in a taxi, wearing a suit and carrying a briefcase. The instant sibling rivalry must soon be put aside when Tim discovers that Boss Baby is actually a spy on a secret mission, and only he can help thwart a dastardly plot that involves an epic battle between puppies and babies. Dreamworks Animation Baldwin s husky basso profundo is a joy in this good-natured but confusing tale of a tiny-handed, briefcase-carrying newborn and a sinister conspiracy. The Guardian

5 SpArC Theatre Events - August 2017 Tickets / Thurs 31st 7pm Tickets Adults 11 U18 7 NT Live: Yerma The incredible Billie Piper returns in her Evening Standard Best Actress award-winning role. ***** Billie Piper is astonishing everything about this production is on-point inews ***** Brutal yet ferociously funny Metro. A young woman is driven to the unthinkable by her desperate desire to have a child in Simon Stone s radical production of Lorca s achingly powerful masterpiece. Critics call it an extraordinary theatrical triumph (The Times) and stunning, searing, unmissable (Mail on Sunday). Billie Piper s lead performance is described as spellbinding (The Evening Standard), astonishing (inews) and devastatingly powerful (The Daily Telegraph). ***** Billie Piper makes a shattering Yerma in Simon Stone s inspired reworking of Lorca The Observer *****.Set in contemporary London, Piper s portrayal of a woman in her thirties desperate to conceive builds with elemental force to a staggering, shocking, climax.
