JULIUS CAESAR

Presented by Minnesota Shakespeare Theater

May 8 - 17, 2026, at the crane theater in minneapolis

Directed By Logan Verdoorn

A populist dictator is on the rise. The people love him; his detractors are put to silence. When two of his closest allies hatch a plot to overthrow Rome's "one, only man", the people of Rome must choose between a would-be King and those that betrayed him in the name of common liberties. Their choices will shape the course of history.

“Upon what meat doth this our Caesar feed that he is grown so great?”

A thrilling tale of secret intrigue, epic battles, and deep friendship in an empire teetering on the brink of oblivion.

Unexpectedly hopeful, searingly heartfelt, Julius Caesar is one of Shakespeare's finest dramatic achievements.

The Crane Theater is located at 2303 Kennedy St NE UNIT 120, Minneapolis, MN 55413
