Description

Beware the Ides of March, Caesar.

Julius Caesar returns home victorious, securing both unparalleled power and popularity. Fearful for the Republic and driven by their own ambition, several senators conspire to assassinate the Roman dictator in the Capitol. However, their brash move plunges Rome into chaos and threatens the very democracy they swore to uphold.

In the shadow of the nearby Capitol building, Shakespeare’s searing commentary on power, ambition, and democratic responsibility smolders just in time for midterm elections.

This performance is the open-captioned performance for Julius Caesar.

Folger Theatre's open-captioned performances are generously sponsored by Vinton and Sigrid Cerf.
