Starting May 10, 'Killing Caesar', which will be performed at the Mary Hall Grand Theater of Sogang University in Seoul, is a work that focuses on 'Cesar Assassination', and has been recreated as a perfect modern drama, not just historical drama or classic historical evidence.
'Killing Caesar' embodies the irony of Caesar's assassination in the name of protecting the republic, which eventually gave birth to another dictator. Director Kim Jung and writer Oh Se-hyuk joined forces to produce the work, which was produced by Tove Theater Company.
Yoo Seung-ho will play the role of Brutus in Killing Caesar. Brutus is an idealist character who conflicts in the dilemma of betraying friends for the ideals of the republic.
Along with Yoo Seung-ho, actors such as Kim Joon-won, Son Ho-joon, and Yang Ji-won, who are active across the stage and the CRT, confirmed the casting.

This eerie political story, which is overshadowed by historical facts, is told by just three characters. In addition, seven chorus members will perform various characters or situations, giving an unconventional stage every moment.
'Killing Caesar' will perform from May 10 to July 20.
