Antony and Cleopatra at Cincinnati Shakespeare Company

Part two of CSC’s special theatrical event, Antony and Cleopatra is the rarely-staged epic sequel to Julius Caesar. The victors of Rome’s civil war have divided the Empire amongst themselves, and Marc Antony has traveled to exotic Egypt to take up rule over his corner of the globe. There he encounters Egypt’s mysterious monarch, the irresistibly entrancing Cleopatra. Their impassioned love affair ultimately pits their two countries against each other and will change the face of the ancient world forever.
