Julius Caesar By William Shakespeare
Studio Directed by Suzy Catliff
Casting by Danièle Sanderson
Join an all-female cast as they explore Shakespeare’s first great tragedy in an edgy, contemporary setting.
Julius Caesar tells the story of the conspiracy to kill Caesar, his assassination, and the ensuing civil war. Examine the dangerous consequences of political leaders who overreach, lose touch with the people who elected them, and succumb to the illusion of infallibility.
As relevant today as when it was first written in 1599, the politics, intrigues, and fight for power will all be re-examined from a 21st-century perspective.
All it takes for evil to triumph is for good people to do nothing.
