Julius Caesar 🌿🏛 by William Shakespeare

We opened yesterday at Classics 110!

Two millennia ago, in late republican Rome, Brutus chooses to take part in the plot to assassinate Julius Caesar, his ally who is slowly consolidating power and public support against the senate. His fellow conspirators are wisecracking, violent young men including the petty Cassius, the clever Casca and the enraged Metellus Cimber. It’s all fun and games until the assassination plot goes through; that is when the comedy unravels and the real tragedy starts.

You still have three more chances to see this great production: Friday (05/15) & Saturday (05/16) at 7:30 PM and Saturday (05/16) at 2:00 PM.

Tickets for this show are FREE but limited. Reserve your free ticket through the LinkTree in our bio!

this is as good as it gets 📓✏️ opens TONIGHT!

this is as good as it gets is an original musical following seven seniors at an all-girls high school as they try to write the ultimate guide to high school success. Led by their enthusiastic and extremely determined class dean, the girls tackle expectations, anxiety, and growing up (whether they’re ready or not) to a score inspired by current singer-songwriters. In one whirlwind hour, this is as good as it gets asks us to rethink what we would tell our younger selves–and whether it even matters.

Tonight is the FREE preview! Just show up at the door of Logan Center 501!

Tickets for the other performances through Saturday can be found through the Linktree in our bio.
