Just two actors will perform Shakespeare's most celebrated history play. Starring Elisa Jones and Josiah Morgan as boldly reimagined by Khalil Qualls, this production is a thrilling exploration of corruption and power in a divided political world.

Julius Caesar is all-powerful after a string of military and political successes. Plans are set into motion to make Julius Caesar an Emperor... and Caesar's friends gather to discuss their fears. They hatch a plan to assassinate Caesar... who will take up Caesar's mantle? Who will retain their honour? Shall Rome stand under one man's awe?

Elisa Jones and Josiah Morgan are veteran performers on the Christchurch stage. Their work together has been labelled “incredible,” “brilliant,” “wild” and “entirely convincing.” Don’t miss your chance to see this Shakespearean classic as you’ve never seen it before.

Join us in the intimate Cloisters Studio at the Arts Centre as Julius Caesar is performed in traverse, with the audience immersed in this production from both sides.
