The Ithaca Shakespeare Company presents JULIUS CAESAR with an all female cast. The Ithaca Shakespeare Company presents JULIUS CAESAR with an all female cast.
Several members of the college community are involved with the production: Judith Andrew, cast (staff, Library); Olivia Dillon, assistant stage manager (Class of 2017); Ivy Stevens, cast (Class of 2015); Lisa VillaMil, cast (Class of 2013).
"When women inhabit these male characters, it helps bring the violent and honor-obsessed world of the play into sharper focus," says director Amina Omari. "Of course, in a world where so many female roles are underwritten, it's also thrilling to watch a talented cast of women scheme, swashbuckle, and fully embrace the spotlight."
Performances are Nov. 6-9 and 13-16. Tickets available on the ISC web site:
