SUMMARY:Oddsocks Productions presents Julius Caesar
DESCRIPTION:The Romans return to Guernsey!\nDid you know that according to Guernsey Museums, it is very likely that Romans came to Guernsey because of the safe harbour on the island and opportunities to sell wine, olive oil and other goods?\nWell, the news is that they are returning to Guernsey this July! Roman soldiers, conspirators and even Emperor Caesar himself are visiting the island and this time they are setting up camp at Sausmarez Manor from Tuesday 23 to Friday 26 June at 7pm each evening, when popular touring theatre company, Oddsocks Productions brings Shakespeare’s ‘Julius Caesar’ to the site as part of a national tour.\nRome 44BC.  Egotistical Emperor Julius Caesar is sweating (and it’s not just the heatwave).  His liberal Senators are a stabbing pain in the backside. They’ve had enough! Rome is in chaos, trust in the government is weak and the emperor’s fate is written in the stars (or the ‘entrails of a goat’).  The peasants are revolting as\nthe most famous political coup in literature is given the Oddsocks treatment.\nExpect the tearing of togas, the swishing of roman swords, some preposterous puppetry, and the biggest battle scene five actors have ever created. On your marcus, getus setus, let the games begin!\n\nCelebrating thirty-five years of touring nationally and internationally this year, Oddsocks is a family run theatre company lead by actor/directors Andy Barrow and Elli Mackenzie. Both actors appear in the production this year. The family has been visiting Guernsey every year since 1994 and appearing in Guernsey has always been a highlight of the tour for the company members. Joining them this season are some familiar Oddsocks actors; Matthew Christmas made his Oddsocks debut as twin brothers Don John and Don Pedro in ‘Much Ado About Nothing’ and Mark Peachey last appeared with the company in ‘The Comedy of Errors’ twenty years ago. He has been quite busy between then and now appearing in the West End and beyond with productions such as ‘The Lion King’, ‘Mamma Mia’ and most recently ‘Dear Evan Hansen’.\nPrepare to laugh your socks off as the bonkers but talented cast of five actors, plus a life-sized puppet or two, pitch up to perform Shakespeare as you’ve never seen it before!\nGates open at 6pm, the performance starts at 7pm and the total running time is 2 hours including interval.\nThe show will go ahead in all but the very worst weather, so do make sure to wear appropriate clothing and bring seating and a picnic and make the most of the\ndelicious food on offer from Patois Etout the site café.\nThe performance is Suitable for all from 7-107\n
