Julius Caesar

Theater Review: “Julius Caesar” — Attacked with Vigor

Probably as it should be for a group called the Actors’ Shakespeare Project, the performances in Julius Caesar are the thing.

By: Arts Fuse Editor Filed Under: Featured, Review, Theater Tagged: Actors' Shakespeare Project, Bobbie Steinbach all-female, Bryn Boice, David Greenham, Julius Caesar, Liz Adams, Marianna Bassham, Marya Lowry, William-Shakespeare

Theater Interview: Critical Truth Telling and Praxis Stage’s “Julius Caesar”

Wonder why Boston theater is so bland, why there is so little political resistance?

By: Bill Marx Filed Under: Featured, Interview, Preview, Theater Tagged: Daniel Boudreau, Joyce Kulhawik, Julius Caesar, Kilian Melloy, Praxis Stage

Theater Commentary: Trump, Julius Caesar, and Political Farce

If the ballyhoo around the Public Theater’s Julius Caesar is a sign of the times, then we have a lot more than Trump to fear.

Theater Review: Bridge Repertory’s “Julius Caesar” — The Fast and Furious Version

With Julius Caesar, Bridge Repertory shows that it can assemble a strong ensemble and put together a memorable sensory experience.

By: Ian Thal Filed Under: Featured, Review, Theater Tagged: Bridge Rep, Julius Caesar, Olivia D'Ambrosio, William-Shakespeare

Theater Commentary: Happy 400th Birthday to Ben Jonson’s “Catiline: His Conspiracy”

Multiple Google searches suggest that no one is celebrating the 400th anniversary of the second of Ben Jonson’s tragedies. I don’t think I will live to see a production of CATILINE, but attention should be paid to this awkward but powerful script. Filled with moral strength, perceptive realpolitik, and rich poetry, it proffers a brilliant serio-comic meditation on political gangsterism.

By: Bill Marx Filed Under: Books, Theater Tagged: Ben Jonson, Catiline, Elizabethan drama, Ian Donaldson, Julius Caesar, Sejanus, tragedy, William-Shakespeare
