Antony & Cleopatra tickets

D.C.’s premiere physical theatre ensemble returns triumphantly to the Shakespeare Theatre with its epic wordless adaptation of Antony & Cleopatra. Featuring the unparalleled skills of the Synetic ensemble, this passionate love story is a collision of empires, as the ascension and assassination of Julius Caesar gives way to the sweeping love story of the Queen of Egypt, Cleopatra, and Caesar’s mighty captain, Antony. Vato Tsikurishvili and Irina Kavsadze star as the pair whose love shakes the foundations of empires.

When it first premiered in 2010, The Washington Post said “With its spectacular rendition…Synetic Theater unquestionably ascends to the first rank of Washington ensembles.” See for yourself Synetic’s stunning synthesis of original music, precision movement, wild acrobatics, and Georgian sword dancing–bringing to life one of the Bard’s most epic tales.
