Julius X: A Re-envisioning of The Tragedy of Julius Caesar transforms Shakespeare's classic into a poignant narrative that intersects with the American Civil Rights Movement. Written by Al Letson and directed by Nicole Brewer, the production stars Brandon Carter in the titular role, alongside Jonathan Del Palmer as Marc Anthony and Jay Frisby as Cassius. This adaptation explores themes of power, friendship, and the legacies of historical figures Malcolm X and Julius Caesar, blending spoken word with significant dialogue and soundscapes to create a unique theatrical experience. Performances are set at Folger Theatre from September 23 to October 26, 2025.
