Ave Ceasar!


Build yourselves strong drinks. Enjoy summertime in the city park. But be aware. You might be shaken, not from the drink, but from what you might see and learn. 

Trump has been shaped millennia ago today. According to New York City’s Public Theatre. For its annual Shakespeare in the Central Park the theatre presented William Shakespeare’s 1599 play Julius Caesar. 
Isn’t it ironic? 

I wonder if actors have ever paid attention to the Western literature. It’s a disaster. Shakespeare is a titan. He made a lasting impression on later theatre and literature. A man who changed the viewpoint on romance by showing it as a worthy topic for tragedy deserves much more respect and creativity on how to be performed nowadays.  

Veni, vidi, vici! 
Well Trump came to power, saw the intricacy of being President of Unites States, but conquered only the stage.


No doubt this version of Julius Caesar will be credited as gusty, timely and incendiary.
But this art is boring and the creativity is irrelevant.
