Martyr'd Signs
"In order for us human beings to commit ourselves personally to the inhumanity of war, we find it necessary first to dehumanize our opponents, which is in itself a violation of the beliefs of all religions. Once we characterize our adversaries as beyond the scope of Gods mercy and grace, their lives lose all value. We deny personal responsibility when we plant landmines and, days or years later, a stranger to us  often a child  is crippled or killed. From a great distance, we launch bombs or missiles with almost total impunity, and never want to know the number or identity of the victims. - Jimmy Carter

Martyr'd Signs investigates the Titus story from the perspectives of the two women in the play - Tamora, the terrifying Queen of Goths, and Lavinia, Titus' tormented daughter.  Martyr'd Signs explores deeper into the cycle of violence..  How does violence happen, and why does it happen?  It takes a look at how dehumanizing and denying mercy only leads to more violence and hatred.  Martyr'd Signs explores war, but more importantly, asks us to look at the hatred, prejudice, oppression, and desire for revenge which brought us there.
