3. Casca
Cicero

4. 2. Aren’t you afraid of all this wind and the ground shaking
2. Aren’t you afraid of all this wind and the ground shaking? I’ve seen many kinds of storms, but never one that drops fire from the sky. Either there are wars in heaven or our world has angered the gods.
1. Good evening Casca. Did you take Caesar home? Why are you out of breath, and why are you staring like that?
Casca
Cicero

5. 1. Good night then, Casca. This bad weather isn’t good to walk around in.
2. Farwell Cicero.
Casca
Cicero

6. Cicero Exits and Cassius Enters
2. A Roman.
1. Who’s there?
Casca
Cassius
Cierco

7. Casca Cassius 1. It’s Casca-I know by your voice.
3. It’s a very pleasing night. Anytime there is a storm I always go outside and put myself right where I think it’s going to hit.
5. You are acting stupid Casca. The heavens cast these storms so that we would see them as frightening warnings of an unnatural state to come. I could name a man right now who’s just like this dreadful night.
2. You hear very well. Cassius, what a night this is!
4. But why would you tempt the heavens like that? Mankind’s role is to fear and tremble when the almighty gods send warning signals.
Casca
Cassius

8. 2. Yes of course. You see, our tolerance for slavery and oppression shows us to be weak.
4. I know this. I will commit suicide to save myself from slavery. Suicide is looked upon by the goods as the weak becoming strong. I can shake off the tyranny that stops me from moving forward.
6. How can Caesar be a tyrant? Poor man! He wouldn’t be a wolf if the Romans didn’t act like sheep. What have I said in my grief?? I might be speaking to someone who wants to be a slave.
1. You are talking about Caesar right?
3. Indeed. They say that the senators plan to establish Caesar as king tomorrow.
5. So can I. Every man can.
7. Say no more. Shake my hand if you want me to join. I will go as far as any of you.
Casca
Cassius

9. Cinna Enters Casca Cassius Cinna
1. That’s a deal. Now I have gathered some of the noblest Romans to join me in a honorable, but dangerous mission.
3. It’s Cinna. I can tell by his walk. Cinna, where are you going so fast?
5. It’s Casca. I have recruited him. Aren’t the others waiting for me?
7. Are the others waiting for me? Tell me.
4. To find you! Who’s that?
6. I’m glad Casca is with us.
8. Yes, they are. Oh, Cassius, if you could only convince Brutus to join us-
2. Hide! Someone’s approaching fast.
Casca
Cassius
Cinna

10. Don’t worry. Just put this paper on the judge’s chair where Brutus sits, so he’ll find it. And throw this one in his window, and attach this one with wax to the statue of Brutus’s ancestor. When you have finished this return to the porch of Pompey theater. That is where we will be waiting.
Casca
Cassius
Cinna

11. Cinna Exits Cassius Casca Cinna
Come on, Casca, you and I will go see Brutus at his house before sunrise. We will win him over.
3. Yes, you’re absolutely right about how worthy Brutus is and how much we need him. Let’s go.
2. All the people love him, and they all trust him.
Cassius
Casca
Cinna

12. Casca and Cassius Exit
The end
