CULTUREA

Prix public : 12,00 €

"Caesar and Cleopatra" by George Bernard Shaw is a captivating historical drama that offers a fresh and unconventional portrayal of the legendary relationship between Julius Caesar, the powerful Roman general, and Cleopatra, the enigmatic Queen of Egypt. Set against the backdrop of ancient Alexandria, the play explores themes of politics, power, and identity, as well as the clash between Western and Eastern civilizations. At the heart of the story is the unlikely mentorship between Caesar and Cleopatra, as the aging Roman leader takes the young queen under his wing and guides her in the ways of diplomacy and statecraft. Through their witty exchanges and philosophical discussions, Shaw challenges traditional interpretations of their relationship, presenting Cleopatra as a shrewd and politically astute ruler rather than a mere seductress. As Caesar navigates the treacherous political landscape of ancient Egypt, he grapples with questions of morality, leadership, and the nature of empire. Meanwhile, Cleopatra wrestles with her own ambitions and desires, as she seeks to secure her throne and assert her independence in a male-dominated world.
