Julius Caesar in Egypt

Approved

A love so powerful, it shook empires.

Who said that passion and politics make for poor bedfellows? Experience Handel’s captivating love story of Julius Caesar and Cleopatra, whose audacious affair rewrote the course of history. As sparks fly between these two rulers, love becomes a battlefield, and the most important conquest is that of the heart. But with pretenders to the throne lurking on all sides, desire can sometimes be a double-sided weapon.

From the majesty of Egyptian palaces to the menace of Roman politics, Julius Caesar is a must-see for anyone who loves opera, history, or romance. Join us for an unforgettable evening of passion and ambition, set to one of Handel’s finest scores.
