2010 Performance Season

"Men at some time are masters of their fates"

He was a leader so remarkable, his name would become immortal. Yet with each victory, Julius Caesar pushed Rome closer toward monarchy—a yoke its citizens proudly threw off hundreds of years before.

Shakespeare's account of the conspiracy to kill Caesar, and the wild struggle to achieve order from the chaos that resulted, has long been loved for the clarity and beauty of its language. From a soothsayer's immortal warning for Caesar, to Marc Antony's famous funeral speech, Julius Caesar is dotted with some of the most memorable and enduring turns of phrase in the English language.

The annual New England Tour of Shakespeare is a core element of S&Co.'s Education Program. For just three weeks they take up residence in the Bernstein Theatre with their direct, electric production that cuts to the core of Shakespeare's text. It features a cast of young S&Co. actors on the rise.
