Modern Day Version of Shakespeare's "Titus Andronicus" Titus Andrius is the respected and highly accomplished chief of the town of Rome, NY's Police Department who is celebrating his successful takedown of a powerful mafia family and their gang "The Goths". However, having lost his two officer sons to the family in the struggle, Titus spitefully murders the oldest son of Tamora, the leader of the Goths, as revenge for his dead sons. This prompts Tamora to swear to destroy Titus's life no matter what it takes. Meanwhile in Rome, New York, the mayor has just died, leaving the position of mayor to be fought over by his sons Samuel & Bastian. Ultimately, Samuel is elected mayor but when he feels slighted by the refusal of Titus's only daughter Lavinia to marry him because she is already engaged to Bastian, Samuel decides to marry Tamora, effectively pardoning her and making her the most powerful woman in Rome. All of this will spark a vicious chain of violence, murder, and cruelty that all culminates in an explosive dinner party.
