Review of "Julius Caesar" at Great Lakes Theatre
by Bob Abelman 06 Oct '19

06 Oct '19

Et tu Great Lakes Theatre? A contemporary, gender-bending ‘Julius Caesar’ Bob Abelman Cleveland Jewish News, The News Herald, The Morning Journal The downside of repertory productions at Great Lakes Theatre is half-expecting the angry mob in Shakespeare’s “Julius Caesar,” who alternately perform in Meredith Willson’s “The Music Man” on the same stage, to break into a roaring rendition of “Shipoopi” during Mark Antony’s proclamation of coming to bury Caesar, not praise him. That is the only downside, for the theatrical transformation from sunny River City, Iowa in 1912 to a problematic Rome, Italy in 44 BCE – where the trouble that rhymed with “P” and stood for pool now stands for persecution and political conspiracy – is a complete one.
