Antony and Cleopatra

Antony and Cleopatra is a love story with the power to shatter nations. But reality has a way of intruding on romance, and love is not the only force at work here. Shaky political alliances, ambition and war threaten the borders of Cleopatra’s beloved Egypt. And as Antony scorns his duty to the Roman Empire from the soft harbor of his lover’s bed, the aspiring young ruler Octavius Caesar circles them like a hungry cat, the balance of power shifting with the unreliable desert sands. This story is no less then epic, spanning decades and continents.
