Julius Caesar. Young Actors in Training
Description
Loyalty and betrayal-Shakespeare's massive body of work is shot through with both subjects, and Julius Caesar stands as a prime example. This program puts young British actors in the spotlight as they analyze and perform Act IV, Scene 3, from the play at London's Globe Theatre. Through their work, the Bard's description of the breakup of an alliance-namely, the murderous and doomed friendship between Brutus and Cassius-achieves a riveting, contemporary life of its own. Subsequently, the actors sit in a group and hash over the dramatic and very human implications of the scene.
