'Julius Caesar' Presented by Cincinnati Shakespeare Company at UC Clermont College on May 2

Julius Caesar

is being presented by Cincinnati Shakespeare Company at UC Clermont College on Wednesday, May 2 at 7 p.m. in the Krueger Auditorium on the campus in Batavia. 

Julius Caesar

is being sponsored by the Arts Advisory Council. There will be no admission fee. Everyone is invited—students, faculty, staff and the community.

“This is the third year that we are sponsoring a presentation by the Cincinnati Shakespeare Company. Past performances have been wonderful. One of the features of the company's traveling productions is that the actors return to the stage after the performance to answer questions from the audience. That's one of the reasons that it's such a great opportunity for high school students. They can ask questions afterward,” said Jo Ann Thompson, assistant professor of English.

The performers are young professionals from the Cincinnati Shakespeare Company. They usually perform at their theater on Race Street in Cincinnati but take selected productions on the road each year.

The performance is guaranteed to be high energy and will last approximately two hours. A feature of all of the traveling productions is a question-and-answer session immediately after the performance in which the actors answer questions from the audience about the performance. The actors are always very personable and it is a highlight of the evening.
