Cincinnati Shakespeare Company has announced its 2015-2016 Season line-up.

The City Theatre Company will open its 2015 theatre season with William Shakespeare's most riveting drama Julius Caesar playing tonight, February 20 - March 15 at City Theatre. CTC's Jeff Hinkle, who previously directed Romeo and Juliet, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, and the acclaimed A Streetcar Named Desire, leads with a dynamic and powerful interpretation of this tragic tale of corruption, love and ambition.

A Noise Within (ANW), the acclaimed classical repertory theatre company, continues its 2014-2015 REVOLUTIONary season with two new productions: The Threepenny Opera, Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill's groundbreaking theatrical work in Michael Feingold's translation, now through May 9 (press opening February 21) and William Shakespeare's Julius Caesar, March 22 to May 8 (press opening March 28). While both plays spoke to the times in which they were first produced - Weimar Germany and Elizabethan England, respectively-they also speak to this season's theme of REVOLUTION, most especially from a socio-political point of view. Scroll down for a first look at THE THREEPENNY OPERA cast in action!

The Public Theater will begin previews for the New York premiere of JOSEPHINE AND I on Friday, February 27.

Next on Shakespeare Uncovered, Kim Cattrall goes back 2000 years to explore the epic love story between a Roman General and an Egyptian Queen, two of the most powerful people in the world. She says theirs was an almost sadistic love affair and although she has played Cleopatra twice, she still has questions about the woman.
