The Shakespeare Theatre Company presents:
Julius Caesar
Julius Caesar Tickets and Information
Synopsis
A swift and enthralling political thriller, Julius Caesar portrays the life-and-death struggle for power in Rome. Fearing that Caesar's growing strength and constitutional ambitions threaten the Republic, a faction of politicians plots to assassinate him. But when Caesar is killed, chaos engulfs Rome.
Alive with stunning rhetoric, Julius Caesar investigates the intoxicating effects of power and the dangers of idealism. In Caesar, Brutus and the young Marc Antony, Shakespeare created three fascinating, dynamic characters.
Shakespeare Theatre Company Associate Artistic Director David Muse makes his mainstage directing debut after several hit productions at area theatres. The Washington City Paper called his production of Frozen at Studio Theatre "triumphant [...] glorious" and praised his "wonderfully sensitive guidance."
The Shakespeare Theatre Company explores politics and ambition by presenting in repertory two of Shakespeare's Roman plays: Julius Caesar and Antony and Cleopatra. Patrick Page returns after his mesmerizing turn as Iago to play both the young and the old Marc Antony.
