“Antony and Cleopatra is a play of mature passion. It addresses a series of oppositions - male/female, desire/duty, love/war, East/West and, most powerfully, Egypt and Rome. The action moves freely across the whole of the Mediterranean world. Written in around 1607-8, the play picks up where Julius Caesar left off. Mark Antony, Octavius Caesar and Lepidus, having defeated Julius Caesar's assassins at Philippi, now rule the Roman Empire as a triumvirate. While in Alexandria however, the ageing Antony has become captivated by Cleopatra, Queen of Egypt (and mother to Julius Caesar's illegitimate son, Caesarion). The gossip and scandal this is creating both amongst Romans in Alexandria and at home in Rome gives rise to dissention between Octavius and Antony, whose behaviour is felt to be debauched and 'un-Roman'.” - The Royal Shakespeare Companysee less
