National Theatre Live: Antony and Cleopatra
January 6, 2019, 1:00 PM – 4:00 PM
$12 – $18
By William Shakespeare
Caesar and his assassins are dead. General Mark Antony now rules alongside his fellow defenders of Rome. But at the fringes of a war-torn empire the Egyptian Queen Cleopatra and Mark Antony have fallen fiercely in love. In a tragic fight between devotion and duty, obsession becomes a catalyst for war.
Director Simon Godwin returns to National Theatre Live screens with this hotly anticipated production, following previous broadcasts of Twelfth Night, Man and Superman, and The Beaux Stratagem. Ralph Fiennes and Sophie Okonedo play Shakespeare’s famous fated couple in his great tragedy of politics, passion and power.
This performance is an encore high-definition broadcast from London.
Tickets: $12 – $18. Prices include per ticket handling fees.
