Tony Bradman creates a thrilling narrative retelling of Shakespeare's tragedy, Julius Caesar. Marcus Brutus is a close friend of Julius Caesar, emperor of Rome. So how does he find himself involved in a tangled plot for his assassination? The conspirators and the public become embroiled in the never-ending political machinations of the great empire, with struggles for leadership and power. And once the terrible chain of events has been set in motion, is there any way of stopping them, or any way out? The Shakespeare Today series captures the magic of Shakespeare's original play and sets it in an accessible and contemporary style.
