Theatre Works: Caesar Caesar
14 November @ 4:00 pm - 5:30 pm AEDT

St Kilda transforms into a fractured republic on the brink of collapse in CAESAR | CAESAR, a radical reimagining of Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar. Told from competing perspectives, and unfolding simultaneously across two iconic venues, this groundbreaking theatrical event places audiences at the centre of a society tearing itself apart. As action is live-streamed between Theatre Works Main Space and the Explosives Factory, audiences at both venues witness the same events as two very different stories.
You choose. Will you stand beside Brutus as he plots to unseat a tyrant within the Explosive Factory’s high-stakes television studio, where image is everything and truth is negotiable? Will you join Portia at Theatre Works’ Main Space, burning with purpose, yet powerless to act as the world fractures around us? Or, why not see both sides of the story: book a double ticket and piece together the truth behind the media spin.
