Caligula at The Greenhouse Theater Center

Considered Albert Camus' greatest and most enduring play, Caligula marches into the Greenhouse Theater Center. After the death of his sister (and possible lover) Drusilla, the young emperor Caligula sinks into a nihilistic funk that seemingly has no bottom. Determined to operate in "permanent" freedom, Caligula lives to legendary excess before discovering he must pay an equally permanent price. Nearly 2,000 years after the events that inspired it took place, Camus' Caligula manages to be both harrowing and unexpected, not to mention deeply prophetic. Thrilling, frightening, absurdly funny, Caligula pushes logic and power to their extremes and beyond in this brilliantly provocative production from the Organic Theater Company.
