He is popular\, generous and well-liked by the commonality\, but his rise to power is accelerating\, and there are those in the Senate that fear for the future of the Republic of Rome. For better or worse\, they take matters into their own hands\, and set to plotting what remains one of the most famous assassinations in history. \nHome to some of Shakespeare’s most enduring turns of phrase – ‘give up the ghost’\, ‘et tu\, Bruté?’\, ‘Friends\, Romans\, Countrymen\, lend me your ears’ and ‘It was Greek to me!’ among others – the play will be brought to life by a cast of over 20 talented local actors who will both entertain and challenge from start to finish with exciting dialogue\, fabulous characterisations\, and expert stage combat. \nHow does power change those it touches?
