This year we present Julius Caesar (condensed), Shakespeare's timeless and timely take on the nature of leadership, loyalty, and the power of persuasion.

Presented in the classic Roman setting, with some nods to the present as Shakespeare likely intended, our production embraces the ambiguity of right and wrong that has always followed this play. More oratory than poetry, the play openly asks, and leaves the audience to answer:  is Caesar rightly assassinated by freedom fighters or overthrown by a short-sighted mob? Does Antony justifiably seek revenge and justice for Rome after the assassination or is he motivated by his own opportunity for power?

As every summer, our production also emphasizes the "troupe" aspect of our performance. With minimal set and props, we strive for storytelling through voice and performance, with quick and effective doubling of parts and each actor joining the mob audience to watch the events unfold when they are not on stage. Come join what we hope will be an engaging and memorable experience.
