Who will win the race to claim the empire? Julius Caesar returns from war, the all-victorious emperor of Rome but mutiny is rumbling through the corridors of power. This Shakespeare classic is full of spin and betrayal, who will come out alive.
This tense play follows the plot to overthrow Julius Caesar from his throne. The plot follows the psychological struggle of Brutus as he, along with Cassius, plans the ultimate betrayal. Brutus' inner confliction between patriotism, honour and friendship is at the centre of this tragedy.
