Most days, life goes on as usual. The sun rises, the sun sets, and not much changes. But every so often, there comes a day that changes the course of history forever.

The 15 March 44 BC, the Infamous Ides of March, was one of those days.

On this immersive theatrical tour, you'll time travel to Ancient Rome and relive the gripping final days of Julius Caesar as history and drama unfold around you.

Led by your guide, Roberta Jones, a time travelling explorer with a knack for uncovering the secrets of the past, you'll walk through Caesar's Rome and discover how he rose to power, why his ambition divided the Republic, and what led to his assassination.

Meet Caesar himself, his wife Calpurnia and her strange dreams, his enemy Brutus, and other characters caught up in the events that would change Rome forever.

You won't just watch history. You'll become part of it. Join Caesar's army, become a Roman citizen, and find yourself drawn into one of the greatest conspiracies of the ancient world.

Was Caesar a hero or a tyrant? You decide.

History, theatre and audience participation come together in an experience designed for both adults and younger travellers.

Bethany

Thought-provoking and simply brilliant

“This tour felt like walking through a live thriller set in ancient Rome. The actors playing Caesar and Brutus were both phenomenal. What surprised me though is that the tour is also super informative, with a guide telling you historical facts about the landmarks we see on the way. The ending is also a surprise and leaves you with many inspiring thoughts about the role of history and democracy.”
