44 BC, Rome sits on the precipice of disaster, the Civil War is over, Pompey is dead, the Senate divided, a faction of well placed conspirators have hatched a conspiracy to assassinate the most powerful man in the world, and the people rejoice the return of their hero, Julius Caesar. The stakes for Rome and the world could not be higher, everything is about to change and nothing will ever be the same again. William Shakespeare’s timeless classic about political ambition and backstabbing recounts a tale of conflicting demands, honour, patriotism and loyalty.
