About this listen

The Folger Shakespeare Library, home to the world's largest Shakespeare collection, brings Julius Caesar to life with this new full-length, full-cast dramatic recording of its definitive Folger Edition.

Shakespeare may have written Julius Caesar as the first of his plays to be performed at the Globe in 1599. For it he turned to a key event in Roman history: Caesar's death at the hands of friends and fellow politicians. Renaissance writers disagreed over the assassination, seeing Brutus, a leading conspirator, as either hero or villain. Shakespeare's play keeps this debate alive.

This new, unabridged audio recording of the well-respected edition of Shakespeare's classic--expertly produced by the Folger Theatre--is perfect for students, teachers, and the everyday listener.

Story by the GOAT; good performance

It’s no wonder Shakespeare is the best ever. The story is great and largely accurate, there are no villains, and every speech is gold.

Fascinating story, excellent performance

It's not called a tragedy for nothing! The performance was very good. For what is worth, we followed along in the Folger version of the play on Kindle.

Excellent Acting!

This version of the play is very easy to understand, even though it is Shakespearean English. The acting is excellent!

Oh god the accents

Story is brilliant and a lot funnier than I remembered. Most of the main actors are good but the accents are off-putting. The voices of the crowd are awful

Best Production, Ever!

I am a high school English teacher, and after my students listened to this performance, they were more than excited to read aloud and perform a scene for their final project. It was great!

good play, difficult to distinguish characters

aside from the diffulty making out specific characters and uncertainty in some scenes if it's public or private it's fine.

Well done indeed!

I can never get enough Caesar and of course Shakespeare nails it here. This play is from the time of Caesar returning from Gaul up to just a bit after his death. It's short but but quite full of fun. great cast. Worth the money.

Reliving the past

I had learned Julius Ceaser in HS so the script was well known. To see the words come alive was an awesome experience. It was also a testament to my emotional maturing.
