Bard in the Quad returns for its 19th season with William Shakespeare's violent historical tragedy Julius Caesar. The production runs August 1-4 and 8-11 in the Memorial Union Quad at 7:30 pm. Et tu, Brute? When the popular leader, Julius Caesar seems to be usurping power in order to position himself as Emperor, two influential Romans Caius Cassius and Marcus Brutus conspire a bloody assassination plot to stop him. While their murderous plans succeed, their beloved Rome is plunged into a dark period of chaos and violence. Set in an imagined future-world inspired by popular science fiction and fantasy stories, this production explores Shakespeare’s universal themes of power, betrayal, and the role that fate plays in all of our lives.
