Description
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.For readers who love Roman history, political drama, classical literature, and the timeless conflict between duty and ambition, AVGVSTVS offers a modern epic forged in the spirit of the ancients.
