Caesar:
The Promise of Harlem

In 1943 Harlem, jazz is life, language is power, and Shakespeare sparks revolution. When Caesar returns from Europe and binds his Senate Orchestra under signature to speak only in Shakespeare’s verse, Harlem’s unity fractures. Brutus and Cassius are drawn into a struggle of ambition, loyalty, and freedom—culminating on Integration Night at Roman’s Ballroom on the Ides of March. Caesar: The Promise of Harlem is a Shakespeare Remix that reveals some rhythms cannot be contained.
