A populist dictator is at the height of his power. The people love him; his detractors are put to silence. When two of his closest allies plot to overthrow Rome's "one, only man", the people of Rome must choose between a would-be King and those that betrayed him in the name of common liberties. Their choices will shape the course of history.  

A thrilling tale of secret intrigue, epic battles, and deep friendship in an empire teetering on the brink of oblivion. Unexpectedly hopeful, searingly heartfelt, Julius Caesar is one of Shakespeare's finest dramatic achievements.
