A Deep Dive into Julius Caesar
 

Since it was first performed, Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar has been hailed as a gripping exploration of power, rhetoric and politics, and remained relentlessly relevant. Join us for this special lecture series where Australian academics delve into the play and its history, and unpack what Shakespeare’s political masterpiece tells us about our past, present and future.

With Dr Kate Flaherty from The Australian National University, Senior Lecturer in English and Drama. Dr Flaherty is interested in the relationship between performed drama and public culture using Shakespeare as an expansive test case.

    Heathers The Musical
    Capturing the essence of its predecessor, Heathers The Musical is an absurdly comic production that doesn’t just walk the line of polite society but plans to blow it all up with reckless abandon.
  • The Glass Menagerie | Melbourne Theatre Company
    This Glass Menagerie is top shelf, and while blessed with an extraordinary cast and the highest of production values, it will not meet with everyone’s measure of how this play should be staged.
