Abstract
She's called the most fascinating female character of any age. The remarkable characterization of Cleopatra has made this sequel to Julius Caesar a timeless favorite. One of the most coveted roles for actresses, played previously by Elizabeth Taylor and Vivien Leigh, the star of this production, Jane Lapotaire not only looks similar to the coin portraits of the historical Queen of Egypt, but has the range and maturity to capture her many facets. This dramatization of Shakespeare's famous play explores the calamitous consequences of an overwhelming passion by telling the story of Antony, the once-heralded leader who becomes stupified with passion and degenerates into a fool, and the multi-faceted Cleopatra.
