Peter Sellars's daring and novel adaptation of Handel's opera Giulio Cesare!

Sung in the original Italian, Giulio Cesare is relocated in the unspecified future 

in the Middle East. Cesare is the unquestioned leaderof a major world power 

who visits the Empire's number one global trouble spot. 

Ptolemy is a 14-year-old "self styled local potentate" and Cleopatra is

his beautiful and spoiled elder sister.  A fascinating epic opera!
