“Julius Caesar" is among Shakespeare's most violent, and most political, plays. Its great themes—the wages of faction and conspiracy, the chaos that follows the downfall of a dictator—are as central to public life now as they were to Elizabethan England.”
-SOHRAB AHMARI, The Wall Street Journal
The Burbage Theatre Company presents a play about men who make mistakes; great men whose choice to act was met with grave consequences. In 44 BC on March 15th, certain few members of the Roman senate, as a means of preventing the ascension of a dictator, murdered Julius Caesar, one of the great rulers of the ancient world. Lead by the infamous Marcus Brutus in the name of honor and the general good, the faction of senators stabbed Caesar thirty three times on the floor of the Senate. What resulted was civil discord and the dividing of a great empire. Shakepeare’s masterpiece is a discourse on how politics can be personal, and how political ideals, while honorable in theory, are rarely met as such.
“When in human history has there not been a war or an unscrupulous politician… This powerful play is about self-deluded warrior-politicians; it is filled with conspiracy, ambition, corruption, betrayal and tyranny. And if the leaders are vicious, the public, easily manipulated, is worse.”
- Toby Zinman, The Inquierer
