Cambridge Shakespeare Festival: Antony and Cleopatra

Shakespeare’s tale of the obsessive and passionate relationship between two rulers of the ancient world is staged in the formal splendour of Downing College.

When the threat of civil war in Rome drives them apart their lives are plunged into political and personal chaos leading to a breath-taking climax. Don’t miss this vibrant and electrifying production!
Performances will take place every evening (except Sundays) at 7.30pm in the East Lodge Garden.
