Julius Caesar was perhaps more appropriate for Shakespeare's time, when people knew the tale and the issues involved were issues faced by most Elizabethans. Noting this, the production staff of Julius Caesar, with the help of the Hyperion Shakespeare banner, will radically transform the play to be meaningful to a modern, college age audience. The play is set in modern America, 20 years from now, when everything has fallen apart. Caesar will focus on actors finding their own connection to the words of the play and the formation of actor-audience relationships. The show promises to be experimental but professional, and seeing Julius Caesar sans toga is definately a different twist on the classic Shakespeare tale.
