William Shakespeare’s

Julius Caesar

Directed by Raz Golden

September 11, 12 13, 2025

“Cowards die many times before their deaths; The valiant never taste of death but once.”

A timeless exploration of power, loyalty, and betrayal, Julius Caesar delves deep into the tensions between personal integrity and public duty. In Raz Golden’s swift and physical production, featuring a cast of seven brilliant young actors from the HVS Conservatory Company, Shakespeare’s political thriller is reimagined as a powerful meditation on the price of political ambition and the perils of idealism in a corrupt world.
