This play definitely shows the downward spiral that comes from the cycle of revenge. As always with Shakespeare, the writing is well done and has many underlying messages. That being said, it is a very bloody story including multiple murders, infidelity, cannibalism, and rape. Be warned, the rape while not "shown" is very intense and heart breaking. I originally started listening to the audio full cast version; but I had switch to the kindle version because it got a bit too real for me.
Graphic: Rape, Violence, and Murder
Minor: Infidelity, Racial slurs, and Racism
