Polonsky Shakespeare Center
262 Ashland Place, Brooklyn, NY 11217
As Julius Caesar’s power grows, the fearful Senate demands he give up his forces and civil war erupts. With mesmerizing energy, director Shana Cooper explores what happens when violence is used to govern, and theatricalizes a mythic cycle that combines the political, psychological, and phantasmagorical.

Shana Cooper staged this production of Julius Caesar at Oregon Shakespeare Festival in 2017. Now, in her Off-Broadway debut, Ms. Cooper reimagines her earlier incarnation of Shakespeare’s timeless tragedy for TFANA
