Written by William Shakespeare

“The evil that men do lives after them; the good is oft interred with their bones.”
Shakespeare’s greatest thriller about political chaos, power struggles and friendship betrayals.
Julius Caesar has become a tyrant.
Cassius sees the threat. Brutus is torn by loyalty. Together, they conspire to kill Caesar.
When Cassius and Brutus murder Caesar in full public view on the Ides of March, they think they have heralded a new political age. Instead, chaos erupts, a civil war begins and these traitorous actions threaten the very stability of Rome.
In this striking reimagining of Shakespeare’s famed political thriller, director Joseph Meighan and The Garrick Ensemble bring the story of Julius Caesar’s assassination, and its aftermath, into a world that bears an uncanny resemblance to our own.
A Caesar for our time.

So whodunnit?
Join the iconic oddballs known as Scarlet, Plum, White, Green, Peacock, and Mustard as they race to find the murderer in Boddy Manor before the body count stacks up.
