Presented by Southwest Shakespeare Company

Southwest Shakespeare Company proudly presents a groundbreaking Japanese-inspired production of William Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar. The story is the original--Roman leaders conspire to assassinate Julius Caesar in the name of saving the republic, only to unleash chaos, civil war, and the rise of a new tyranny. This production fuses the classical Roman drama with an homage to Akira Kurosawa and Quentin Tarantino, in an innovative reimagining that captures the political intrigue and betrayal of Shakespeare’s masterpiece while incorporating elements of Noh and Kabuki performance styles. East meets West in this powerful meditation on political idealism, mob psychology, and how quickly noble intentions can spiral into tragedy.

All performances will have a talkback at the conclusion of the show.
