Beware the Ides of March

No togas. But plenty of intrigue.

The Bloomsburg Theatre Ensemble will stage Julius Caesar Friday and Saturday, Jan. 27 and 28. Showtime is 7:30 p.m. at Alvina Krause Theatre, Center Street. General admission tickets are $12.
Adapted and directed by Ensemble member James Goode, Shakespeare's play has reset to a 19th-century milieu.

BTE received a prestigious NEA Shakespeare in American Communities grant for this forceful, streamlined, and surprising retelling of the Shakespeare staple. There's lot of additional information about the show at the BTE website, including notes from the director, sketches from the costume designer and a synopsis of the play.

The BTE has been one of Bloomsburg's cultural gems for more than 30 years. There's a number of events coming this semester which help support the company through the year.
