Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar
Aquila Theatre
Sunday, November 18, 2007
at 7:00 pm
Main Stage - $32
The Aquila Theatre Company’s production of Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar will follow 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. The choice that Brutus makes has the power to destroy the old world order and to ignite a fierce civil war.
Aquila’s production asks the audience to consider the price of democracy and freedom and the consequences that can befall a society when it is asked to defend its core beliefs.
Julius Caesar will be staged using Aquila’s renowned company aesthetic – excellent acting, crystalline verse-speaking, original music and innovative conceptualization and design. Aquila will bring one of Shakespeare’s most relevant and timely works to vibrant life in a production that is visceral, challenging and, above all, entertaining.
There will be a free pre-performance talk in the Recital Hall at 6:00 pm.
