Have you ever wondered what really happened
to Julius Caesar on the Ides of March?
The Troubies have … and are warning you to “Beware the Ides of March in May!”
The terrible tidings and twisted tale of corruption, betrayal, and the quest for absolute power – no, not Washington DC -- Rome circa 44 B.C.
Shakespeare’s story of Caesar, with the funk-rock riffs of the resurgent and ubiquitous band, weezer. This 90-minute hard-driving, heart pounding, adrenaline rush of a show will feature the Troubies in all their classical glory – speaking the speech, and strumming the power chords.
The production will take advantage of the El Portal’s wonderfully theatricalized confines to create a bloody, bold, and resolute retelling of one of Shakespeare’s great tragedies.
Age appropriate for eight and up, the show will feature special make-up effects that may disturb some younger guests – after all, Caesar was stabbed 33 times …
Part circus, part improv comedy show, part rock concert - with a live 4-piece band that complements and compels the cast of 12 Troubies as they wind their way through the dark and dangerous world of Julius weezer.
Enjoy the madness with the Troubies and be able to say: “I came, I saw, I conquered…and I rocked out!”
BEWARE THE IDES OF MARCH!
