The Assasination of Julius Caesar As Told By William Shakespeare and George Bernard Shaw NYC Reviews and Tickets

See it if great concept of merging the two plays. always wondered why Shakespeare left Cleopatra out of Julius Caesar; this attempts to make it clear.

Don't see it if But not clear enough. And the subplot of the dictatorial director was shaky. note the play is now over an hour shorter.

See it if Incredible actors do Shkspr & Shaw. All the fave chrctrs in the flesh. Bit off more than can comfortably chew, but the flavor is so good

Don't see it if Chaotic collage is ultimately neither Shks nor Shaw. Hard to know why anything’s happening. Occasionally thought, oh god will this ever end? Read more

See it if Going in w/ an understanding you're seeing a "work in progress". Are intrigued by the creative process just as much as the end result.

Don't see it if Unable to commit to the full 3.5 hr runtime. Are too easily confused/distracted by actors playing multiple roles. Read more

See it if An enthusiastic group of talented young actors produce a mash-up of Shakespeare and Shaw's vision of Julius Caesar.

Don't see it if a show with potential that is in need of editing. It is overly long 2.5 hours and confusing.

See it if you're a fan of either one of the two source plays.

Don't see it if your bladder can't sustain two hours and 10 minutes OR you're not really a theatre person.

See it if Two plays in one and from different perspectives. Acting for most part is good.

Don't see it if Way to long at almost 3 hours. Gets confusing at times. Needs to be cut.

See it if you enjoy ambitious plays that attempt to reimagine classic texts; you're willing to put in the time/mental effort to engage with this piece

Don't see it if you're looking for a tight script or consistently brisk pacing; you aren't interested in seeing a long show that could benefit from trimming Read more

See it if Two plays on one, they go back and forth.

Don't see it if At times I was confusing to follow, but after some time I got it. It's very long. The night I went the show running time was around 3hrs.
