Julius Caesar is Shakespeare on the Sound's 13th annual summer outdoor production! The politically charged study of powerful, ambitious personalities in conflict offers perfect election year summertime fare. Performances are free, with a suggested donation of $20 for adults and $10 for students and seniors.

Ezra Barnes, Artistic Director of Shakespeare on the Sound, describes Julius Caesar as "one of Shakespeare's most popular plays, a story that is easy to grasp and enthralling." Long a staple in classroom curriculum and overflowing with familiar quotations (from "Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears" to "It's Greek to me"), Shakespeare on the Sound's Julius Caesar promises an evening of lively, relevant entertainment for the whole family.

Throughout the year, our education programs reach out to our local community to deepen the Shakespeare experience. In story-telling and language study courses, drama workshops and lectures, we take Shakespeare's words and wisdom to school children and adults in classrooms, auditoriums, libraries and bookstores throughout the area.
