Shakespeare In The Park – Singapore Repertory Theatre Julius Caesar

Share Article

Singapore Repertory Theatre Julius Caesar marks the return of its much-loved Shakespeare in the Park series. At arguably the biggest Shakespeare production of its kind in this part of the world, you can look forward to spreading your blankets under the stars to picnic and enjoy the Bard’s best-loved plays in the uniquely beautiful setting of Fort Canning Park. Directed by Guy Unsworth (Hand to God), and inspired by images of the G20 and N.A.T.O summits, this production sees Shakespeare’s political thriller brought to life against the backdrop of global current affairs.

Singapore Repertory Theatre Julius Caesar – The Plot

Ambition, power, and greed collide as the leaders of the R.O.M.E 7 countries gather. Plots to assassinate the ever-ambitious Caesar are hatched. Are his conspirators truly doing a righteous deed? Or is chaos and defeat inevitable? How shockingly relevant the plays are today despite being written over 400 years ago is a testament to Shakespeare’s genius. With larger than life characters jostling for power on the world stage, audiences will have no trouble drawing parallels with current politics.

“Men at some time are masters of their fates: the fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars but in ourselves, that we are underlings……”

It is this enduring and timeless appeal, coupled with quality time spent with friends, colleagues and loved ones picnicking in Ford Canning that makes a night at Shakespeare in the Park so memorable.
