About Rome Sweet Rome
Q Brothers Collective (GQ, JQ, JAX & POS) is back to partner with CST to debut their satirical new “add-rap-tation” of Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar, after more than a decade of wildly successful collaborations including Othello: The Remix, Funk It Up About Nothin’, and Q Brothers’ Christmas Carol. Hailed by MTV as “nothing short of brilliant,” their work blends hip hop and theater—adapting classic stories with a wholly original style of performance that has amassed a cult following of fans in Chicago and beyond. Igniting Julius Caesar with the pulse of ’90s hip hop and New Jack Swing, Rome Sweet Rome infuses Shakespeare’s political intrigue with bold satire and electrifying beats. Razor-sharp wit collides with revolutionary rhythm, proving that power struggles never go out of style. This is Shakespeare that bumps, breathes, and breaks boundaries.
Q Brothers Collective (GQ, JQ, JAX & POS) shared, “We’re excited to be back home at Chicago Shakes. Rome Sweet Rome is just us doing what we love—celebrating and satirizing Shakespeare, and the world at large.”
