Julius Caesar at The Minack Theatre

Power. Loyalty. Betrayal. Shakespeare’s tense political drama comes to life on the cliffs of Cornwall in this bold new production by Derby Shakespeare Theatre Company.
Set in the heart of ancient Rome, Julius Caesar tells the story of a city on the brink. As Caesar’s popularity soars, fear and suspicion grip the Senate. A group of conspirators decide the only way to save the Republic is to K*ll its leader – but the consequences of their actions spiral far beyond anything they planned.
Performed in traditional Roman costume, this production puts clarity and character at its core. From whispered conspiracies to crowd-stirring speeches, it’s a gripping story of ambition, honour, and how democracies break apart.
Derby Shakespeare Theatre Company return to the Minack with a powerful ensemble and a clear, contemporary approach to one of the Bard’s most thrilling plays. With six performances across four days, this is a chance to see Shakespeare’s political tragedy in a truly unforgettable setting.
Whether you're new to the play or already know how the knives will fall – Julius Caesar has never felt more relevant.
