Julius Caesar

Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar follows the epic story of the rise and fall of one of the world’s most notorious leaders. Set in a world of political intrigue and strained domestic relationships, the production explores the moral and political dilemma of Marcus Brutus. Should he join the conspiracy to assassinate Caesar, conquering hero and his trusted friend? Or, should he allow one man’s tyrannical ambition to overcome the very ideals that Rome was founded upon? The choice that Brutus makes has the power to destroy the old world order and to ignite a fierce civil war.

Julius Caesar is staged using Aquila’s renowned company aesthetic – excellent acting, crystalline verse-speaking, original music, and innovative conceptualization and design. It is the company’s mission to bring "the greatest work to the greatest number." With Julius Caesar, Aquila brings one of Shakespeare’s most relevant and timely works to vibrant life in a production that is visceral, challenging and, above all, entertaining.
