AVGVSTVS

AVGVSTVS is a sweeping historical drama chronicling the rise of Octavian: from the ashes of Julius Caesar's murder to the dawn of the Roman Empire. Written in a heightened classical style, the play blends Shakespearean cadence with the political realism of Livy, Tacitus, and Plutarch.

Across four acts and fifteen scenes, Octavian navigates a broken Republic

⢠Senate confrontations

⢠battlefield councils

⢠private reckonings

⢠impossible alliances

⢠the birth of power

⢠and the moral cost of destiny

Over ten years in the making, revised and refined with painstaking historical care, AVGVSTVS follows a young man forced to match ambition with virtue as he contends with Cicero, Brutus, Cassius, Antony, Lepidus, Agrippa, and Maecenas. What emerges is the portrait of a leader who must choose between the ideals of the Republic and the necessities of rule.

This is Rome at its tipping point: its violence, its rhetoric, its personal betrayals, and its fierce struggle for order.
