One assassination. One divided Rome. A struggle for power that changes everything. Shakespeare's epic political thriller Julius Caesar comes to the intimate, candlelit Sam Wanamaker Playhouse at Shakespeare's Globe – bringing ambition, conspiracy and betrayal thrillingly close to the audience.

Rome is uneasy. Julius Caesar's growing power has made him enemies, and in the corridors of the Senate a deadly conspiracy is taking shape. At its heart stands Brutus, torn between loyalty to Caesar and what he believes is his duty to Rome. Then comes the assassination – and with it one of theatre's most famous betrayals: “Et tu, Brute?”

But killing Caesar is only the beginning. As Brutus and his fellow conspirators fight to justify their actions, Mark Antony turns public opinion against them and Rome descends into political chaos and civil war. Friendship, loyalty and ambition collide in Shakespeare's gripping exploration of power – and the devastating consequences of those who fight to control it.

Directed by Joe Hill-Gibbins, this production brings Shakespeare's Ancient Rome into the extraordinary intimacy of the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse. Surrounded by candlelight and only metres from the action, you are not simply watching history unfold from a distance. Take your seat among the citizens of Rome – and watch ambition, betrayal and power tear a nation apart.
