The back of the stage will be of a neutral shade, though the walls of the houses will extend some distance toward the centre of the background. A draw curtain will be employed. A raised platform in the rear centre will be used as the rostrum, whence Antonius will address the citizens. Caesar's throne will be on the spectators' left, while the senators...
