←Recommendations of Caesar's Blood

A history play inspired by real characters and real events. Wholly engaging . . . and, yes - deeply disturbing. I do not use the word "disturbing" lightly for the fact that the ordeal & situations which serve as the plays backdrop - if you will - are so striking & fortelling. History does, in fact, move cyclically, not in a straight line. Vivid characterization gives this work momentum. Nice job, Rich!

Rich Rubin has created an outstanding work that manages to capture the tension of a particular moment in history that remains sadly relevant to our own time. Every character is a gem. The dialogue just sizzles. A great read and no doubt a great evening of theater.

Was lucky to catch a Zoom performance and was much impressed with how Rubin conjures this historical moment making it credibly of that time, and also usefully relevant to ours. It is an engrossing backstage drama that is also a vigorous exploration of America's original sin. Worthy of more productions.

Rich Rubin captures the era with his evocative language and finely tuned backstage look at the Booth brothers. The script feels even more timely now with American politics at a fever pitch.
