Notes
- General
- A production noted for the intelligent and illuminating performances of Greg Hicks and Tim Pigott-Smith in exploring the characters of, and relationship between, Brutus and Cassius. Hicks and Pigott-Smith considered alternating their roles but this idea sadly failed to materialise.
