Location: Rosa 386 | 386 Metropolitan Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11211

Directed by Anna RebekSet in the ancient city of ROME (secret garden at Rosa 386) - under the burning stars on a backyard terrace, and proceeding into a plush interior for intimate scenes, join us for site-specific night of Shakespeare to remember.
Having secured a fresh victory against their neighbor Pompey, Julius Caesar returns to a tumultuous Rome. His two close advisors, Brutus and Cassius, worry Caesar has turned from a leader to a God, and that Rome will fall under the arrogance of one man. They assemble a group of conspirators to corner and slay this great Caesar, believing they will save their beloved republic.

When Mary Antony finds the fallen Caesar, he gives one of the greatest speeches ever written to turn the people of Rome against the murdering conspirators. Once that match is lit, Rome burns, and the mob drives them out, killing innocents in their path.

A great war is waged, allegiances crumble, a ghost comes for a visit, and as with all the tragedies, great women and men fall.

Run time 2 hours and 15 minutes. 

The audience will be guided by cast members to move between the large back courtyard of the event space into the interior for intimate scenes, and back again. The exterior has seating for all audience members, the interior has limited seating for those who require seating and upon request.
In the event of light rain, tents will be put up to protect the audience, and the show will continue. In the event of other outdoor issues, the show will be rescheduled.
