You Picked, We're Playing!
Mad Duck Equity Co-op presents
William Shakespeare's
Julius Caesar

In October of 2004, Mad Duck Equity Co-op (the Jessie nominated The
Tempest) invited Vancouver audiences to vote for what play they wished
to see in March 2005. You picked Julius Caesar.

With a false election, the economy reeling from war and Rome ravaged by
storms; a group of senators commit the unthinkable and plot the
assassination of the head of state.

"Beware the Ides of March."
