Political intrigue on the Civic Center lawn
Submitted by Bill Smith on Monday, July 16, 2012, at 5:15 pm
Muse of Fire Theatre Company brings a modern-dress production of "Julius Caesar," Shakespeare's examination of the corrupting influence of political power, to the park behind Evanston's Civic Center this summer.
Performances are at 3 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays from Aug. 4 through Aug. 19 and again from Sept. 1 through Sept. 9.
The outdoor setting and low-tech approach are designed to make Shakespeare’s plays accessible to all, and nothing like a stuffy English class.
The performances are presented in partnership with the City of Evanston.
More information is available online or by calling (847) 707- 8632.

Let's give Mayor Ingraham his due!
The "the park behind Evanston's Civic Center" has a name: Ingraham Park.
It is named after Samuel G. Ingraham, a former Evanston mayor.
Let's honor the city's history by remembering Ingraham. He was a hell of a mayor.
