Complete casting was announced today for the all-new Broadway production of William Shakespeare's JULIUS CAESAR, starring two-time Academy® Award-winner Denzel Washington as Brutus. The cast also stars Colm Feore as Brutus' co-conspirator, Cassius; Jessica Hecht as Brutus' wife, Portia; William Sadler as Julius Caesar; Tamara Tunie as Caesar's wife, Calphurnia; Eamonn Walker as Marc Antony and Jack Willis as Casca.

BROOKLYN BOY is about Eric Weiss (Adam Arkin), a writer who has finally hit the big time after years of hard work, with a best-selling novel primed for a Hollywood adaptation. But has success changed him? And does where we're from affect who we become?
