Hwyl Theatre and the Isaac Theatre Royal present Julius Caesar, a Canterbury Youth Theatre production.

Get ready for a magical, unforgettable experience as our talented young cast brings Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar to life like never before. This production blends this classic drama and brings it into the industrial age. Set against a backdrop of dieselpunk and the industrial revolution, Canterbury Youth Theatre invites you in to experience this classic tale of conspiracy, power, and revolution.

Our production is a celebration of the incredible talent of young performers, aged 13 to 18, who have been trained and immersed in the world of the Bard. Each actor brings their unique energy and passion to the stage, delivering a performance that captures the youthful spirit of the play while honoring its classic roots.

But it’s not just the cast that makes this production shine. Our young team has had the opportunity to work closely with industry professionals - directors, performers, and choreographers - who have helped shape this vision into something truly special. Together, they’ve designed a vision for a visually stunning show that brings the world of Roman politics into the modern age.

Come join us in Papa Hou’s brand new Black Box Theatre space where anything can happen, and where the line between dream and reality is beautifully blurred. Don’t miss this bold reimagining of a true classic - Julius Caesar through the lens of the industrial age, brought to life by the next generation of theatre stars.
