AmericanShakespeareCenterJuliusCaesar“Raise your hand if when you studied Julius Caesar in high schoolyou found it mind-numbing and boring. If ever one of WilliamShakespeare’s plays cried out to be seen on the stage rather than read onthe page it’s Julius Caesar. Yes, it contains some of the most beautifulspeeches that Shakespeare ever wrote. The use of rhetoric and phrasingto make political and linguistic points is masterful. On the page,Julius Caesar can feel stilted with many a Roman character, Publicanand Plebeian to keep straight. The American Shakespeare Center’s production proves that a dynamic and clear production that emphasizesnot only the language but the heart and soul of its characters is the bestway to bring Julius Caesar alive for a twenty-first century audience.” Diane Holcomb WilshereIn this profoundly moving, thrilling, and deeply human play, Shakespeareshows us a world on fire, a world spinning out of control, a world wheresome of history’s most famous men commit horrific crimes in the name ofpatriotism and honor. Julius Caesar is a dazzling masterpiece of betrayal,violence, and perhaps most surprisingly — love.
