Julius Caesar Remixed: a Shakespearean tale of ambition, betrayal and conspiracy. Rewrite history, or repeat it?
Following the tragic death of Jerome during a fight between two rival London secondary schools, tensions remain dangerously high. So, when Malik, a student from the opposing school, transfers into Jerome’s former classroom, old wounds are ripped open. For many, welcoming an outsider feels impossible.
As the students prepare for their end-of-term production, Malik is unexpectedly cast as Julius Caesar. Zoe, burdened by secrets of her own, is determined to turn her classmates against him. As rehearsals intensify, loyalties are tested, friendships fracture, and suspicion begins to spread.
Julius Caesar Remixed is a play within a play, where Shakespeare’s tale of ambition, betrayal and conspiracy begins to mirror the students’ own lives. As the boundaries between performance and reality blur, the two worlds collide. But can the students rewrite history or are they destined to repeat it?
