Following the success of their 2019 production of Macbeth, Vermont Theatre Company returns to the iconic venue with director Jessica Gelter at the helm. This marks Vermont Theatre Company's first production at the Memorial Park's Rotary Stage since 2019.
The Tragedy of Julius Caesar is a thrilling drama, in which community leaders manipulate each other into assassinating the head of their political system. It explores how that irrevocable choice leads their community into more violence and inevitable fascism. This year's Vermont Theatre Company Shakespeare production will feature gender-fluid casting in this political tragedy, which will be set in a rubble-filled, post-war, alternative world. According to the director, actors will not be in togas, performing a historical reenactment. It is a story of yesterday, of today, and of tomorrow - it is a fantasy, and a nightmare.
In anticipation of this upcoming production, the Rotary club and Brattleboro Parks and Recreation Department will be improving the Rotary Stage in Memorial Park, including adding a ramp to improve accessibility for the actors.

Tickets for Julius Caesar will be on a Sliding Scale $5-$15 with kids under 12 free.
