The country you love and the values it represents are being destroyed by a misguided leader. You can continue to live in relative comfort by not involving yourself, or you can take action to save the democracy you love. Set outside of Rome in the villas and hillsides of Tusculum, Richard Nelson continues his revelatory exploration of history with a new play that chronicles those entangled in Julius Caesar’s world of manipulation and power.
What's the Public Theater?:
In addition to producing Shakespeare in Central Park, the New York Shakespeare Festival produces a season of plays at its Astor Place theatres. Fare ranges from adventuresome productions of the classics to more modern, often very culturally relevant fare. Despite the size of the theatre, shows are a bit more rough-edged than those you might find at some of the city's other long-running subscription theatres, but that's very much by design. More here
