Why see Julius Caesar?
Shakespeare's thriller At The Globe
Joe Hill-Gibbins (Ghosts, Sam Wanamaker Playhouse) returns to stage to tell Shakespeare’s powerful and urgent story of loyalty, betrayal, and political conflict. Originally written around 1599, Julius Caesar draws on real events from Roman history. Experience Shakespeare’s gripping political drama in the atmospheric, candlelit setting of the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse!
What's The Story?
Focused on the rise of Rome's magnetic leader, Julius Caesar, he is a formidable force of being, unlike any the city has ever seen. A charismatic politician, he appears to be hellbent on gaining absolute power. Angry at this threat to their political system, they are left to a small band of patriots to take matters into their own hands.

Not perfect but close
Overall this is an exceptional production that
works extremely well. The balance and pace
of the production are thoughtful and satisfying.
The temporal transposition, so suitable for
this play works beautifully.
Highly recommended.
Cassius, Caesar and Anthony are all superb
throughout. Brutus grows through the evening
but ultimately seemed miscast in this
particular role.
View from 3A was good, but you really had to
sit forward much of the time. Sorry to those in
3B behind. The promenaders below must
have had a great experience, but they surely
needed stamina for 2 hours.
Ate at Tom Simmons around the corner
beforehand - also excellent food and
reasonable prices (with good veggie choices).
All in all an unforgettable first visit to the
Bridge.
