Julius Caeser at Festival 56

Friends, Romans, Countrymen... Et tu, Brute... Veni, vidi, vici. The original, and perhaps the ultimate, political thriller. Before there was Scandal, before there was House of Cards, before The Tudors or the The Borgias, there was Julius Caesar. In 44 BC, a conspiracy against the Roman dictator, Julius Caesar, resulted in his assassination at the hands of the Senators, and many of the most famous lines that Shakespeare ever put to paper.
