William Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar
JMO Theatrics (Ōtautahi Christchurch)
“Fantastic…invigorating…mind-blowing”
Two actors 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 Caesar an Emperor…and his friends gather to discuss their fears. They hatch a plan to assassinate him…who will take up Caesar’s mantle? Who will retain their honour? Shall Rome stand under one woman’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.
JMO Theatrics are an independent production company aiming to create a more inclusive and sustainable arts ecology in Aotearoa.
