This summer, Shakespeare’s Globe brings a startlingly relevant new production of epic tragedy Julius Caesar to Taunton Brewhouse as part of their nationwide Globe on Tour series, directed by Diane Page.
Conspiracy to kill, cunning rhetoric, a divisive fight for Greatness: Ancient Rome has never felt closer to home. When Cassius and Brutus decide Rome’s leader Caesar poses a political threat to their beloved country, there’s only one solution…
Diane Page, winner of the 2021 JMK Award, brings Shakespeare’s brutal tale of ambition, incursion, and revolution to life in the Globe and on tour across the UK.
‘Th’ abuse of greatness is when it disjoins
Remorse from power.’
Act II, scene 1
