———->parentēs, our play will be held on March 26th, 6:30 PM, unless events warrant a postponement.  Stay tuned here for more information<—————

Something for  Brutus + Anthony: 

Here y’go, Marc Anthony!

Dies Iovis, XIII Februarius MMXX (Thursday, 13 February 2020)

 

(BTW, not to speak ill of Jason Robards, but this is the single WORST performance of Brutus I’ve ever seen…)

Here’s a recording of part of the play.  Start at 17 minutes, 40 seconds for our play, Act 2, scene 2.

Act 3, scene 1, at the capitol.  (After Artemidoros’ scene)

 

Here you go, Antony!  Don’t mind the Elizabethan costumes, remember, they were a mash-up of Roman and Shakespeare’s times.
