Family theater urges you to pray, pray together as a family. Tonight, family theater takes great pleasure in presenting William Shakespeare's Julius Caesar, starring Wendell Cory as Mark Antony, and Jean Raymond as Brutus. How shall we know a man?

By his deeds, history says there goes a conqueror, or perhaps there goes a god. Julius Caesar was labeled both of these and some time tyrant too, by his enemies and even by his friends. Brutus was Caesar's friend, but so disturbed was he where Caesar's power might lead Caesar that he joined the conspiracy

which struck Caesar down. This story was called Brutus and Assassin, yet this was the man of of whom his enemy Mark Antony was to say. This was the noblest Roman of them all. Roman's son shines down upon a hominor.

Caesar has returned in triumph from Monday and Spain, where he has crushed in conclusive battle the sons of Pompeii. His frowning white statues are hung with colored scarves and have been bedecked with badges via an adorning populace.

Caesar has come home. The hominor is found with joy. The adulation reaches such a fever pitch But Brutus, Caesar's friend, is more to whisper, worryily. What means this shouting, and I do fear the people choose Caesar for their king.
