Titus Andronicus (ou La Très Lamentable Tragédie romaine de Titus Andronicus, en anglais The Most Lamentable Romaine Tragedy of Titus Andronicus) est peut-être la première tragédie de William Shakespeare, et certainement la plus sanglante. Elle décrit un cycle de vengeances qui oppose Titus, général romain imaginaire, à son ennemie Tamora, reine des Goths. À partir du XVIIIe siècle, cette pièce a été un peu délaissée. Cette aversion se fondait sans doute sur l'horreur de la violence gratuite qui imprègne ce récit. Titus Andronicus a retrouvé sa justification au XXe siècle, grâce par exemple à la mise en scène marquante de Peter Brook en 1955, avec Laurence Olivier et Vivien Leigh. Cette pièce, dit Peter Brook, parle des émotions les plus modernes - de la violence, la haine, la cruauté, la souffrance.
