Brutus et Cassius, emportés par l’honneur et le doute, se querellent avant de se retrouver, tandis que l’ambition et la peur agitent la foule et les chefs. Tragédie de la décision et de ses conséquences, ce drame met à nu le prix du pouvoir, la fragilité de l’amitié et la force d’un discours capable d’enflammer un peuple.

This avant-garde, spoken word tour de force, is pontificated by the sombre Jacques in Act II, Scene VII. The content of his speech is not only a powerful instance of art imitating life, but also life imitating art, specifically a stage and the changeable drama which ensues. A thought-provoking masterpiece!
