Julius Caesar Recording

The recording of Julius Caesar will be available to book from Tuesday, June 22nd - 29th. The link will be active to view until July 6th.

Enter the situation room of Julius Caesar’s government - the political heart of a city in turmoil.

Caesar’s popular and progressive leadership is delivering much needed change, but where do his personal ambitions lead? Inside the corridors of power, a young and radical faction is forming, determined that Caesar’s cult of personality should move on and make way for new voices.

Outside, Rome is a place where time is running out. Mysterious forces make the idea of conspiracy an everyday reality, and the will of the people is easily manipulated. As rumours and lies spread across the citizenry, big questions are on everybody’s lips. At what point does political violence become a moral imperative? And, when progressives are divided, what forces lurk ready to take power in a political vacuum?

Julius Caesar by William Shakespare is directed by Marc Atkinson Borrull and performed by The Lir's final year Acting students and crewed by its Stage Management & Technical Theatre students.
