Julius Caesar

August 9 - 17, 2019

A Shakespeare in the City Production
in collaboration with Historic St. Mary's City.

Julius Caesar has returned to Rome triumphant from the war against Roman General Pompey. The Roman republic is prepared to heap him with new honors, causing concern and dismay among some senators who fear that too much power is held by one man. Caius Cassius plots a conspiracy to murder Caesar, enlisting the support of the well-respected Marcus Brutus who has misgivings but is finally persuaded that Caesar's death is necessary for the good of the republic.
The tragedy of Julius Caesar is one of several plays written by Shakespeare based on true events from Roman history. Although the play is named Julius Caesar, the central drama of the play focuses on Brutus' struggle between the conflicting demands of honor, patriotism and friendship.
