Conversations In Tusculum: The country you love and the values it represents are being destroyed by a misguided leader. You can continue to live in relative comfort by not involving yourself, or you can take action to save the democracy you love.

The play features Brian Dennehy (Cicero), Joe Grifasi (Syrus), Gloria Reuben (Porcia), David Strathairn (Cassius), Maria Tucci (Servilia) and Aidan Quinn (Brutus).

The creative team comprises Thomas Lynch (sets), Susan Hilferty (costumes), Jennifer Tipton (lighting) and John Gromada (sound).
