Shakespeare, Slightly Abridged: Titus Andronicus
Andre Luc Martinez for Narrator
This is a character that I have added that isn't in the original, because of the cuts in the script, some of the action and setting will need to be described and explained.
If you could have Jim Dale's voice (he voices the Harry Potter books) that would be awesome. He has a sophisticated air to him, but brings excitement to the words.
I would prefer a deeper voice, almost as if Father Time was looking over all.
Have fun with this, it's a small, but very important role.
Long in the future, in a place that stands in and out of time, lay the city of Rome. For many years the city had been a place of peace, so much so that inside city walls, swords of metal were forbidden. In their place were more ceremonial swords, taken from the mighty trees that bordered Roman lands, but across the dessert landscape, and the shifting dunes, the Queen of the Goths was raising her armies.
