William Shakespeares Julius Caesar at KLPac

Synopsis:
Julius Caesar is a tale of conspiracy, power, death and destruction.

When Caesar returns victorious to Rome, he is offered the crown by the populace and unwillingly he rejects it, three times. Cassius, wary of Caesar’s foibles and ambitions conspires to have Caesar assassinated; but for his conspiracy to be accepted by the populace he must, and does, win the noble Brutus over to his side.

The pre-determined day for the assassination, the Ides of March (15th March), is prophesised by a soothsayer. On that day Caesar is mercilessly stabbed to death on his way to the Senate House. One by one the conspirators, in the form of a ritualistic sacrifice, thrust their daggers into Caesar’s body. The final thrust is delivered by Caesar’s beloved Brutus … ‘Et tu Brute’.

What follows is a disastrous series of events, culminating in the double suicides of Cassius and Brutus.
