The Ides of March
Time travel.
Treachery.
Togas!
When William Shakespeare
travels back in time to ancient Rome to research his newest play he
unwittingly finds himself a prime suspect in the murder of Julius
Caesar. He and his faithful sidekick Cardenio are forced to use all
their tact and cunning to evade the villainous senator Brutus, the
leader of the conspirators who's desperate to throw the 'dirty
foreigner' to the lions, and the trenchcoat-clad Inspector Detectivus of
the Roman Politizia, who's hell-bent on cracking the case of the century.
Grab
your swords and sandals and strap in for a fast, furious roller-coaster
ride through space and time. This is ancient history like you've never
seen before!
"One of the most drawn-out and hysterical takes on
Caesar's death I can imagine" Shakespeare Oz
