During the celebrations, a soothsayer warns Caesar to beware the Ides of March. Cassius and Brutus discuss their fears that Caesar’s ambition is to become queen, despite learning from Casca that she had refused the people’s offer of the crown. Casca, Cassius, and Cinna meet during a stormy night that has been full of unnatural events, and agree the need to win Brutus over to their cause: the elimination of Caesar. Brutus meanwhile has been reflecting on the dangers of having Caesar crowned. When the conspirators arrive at Brutus' house she agrees to the assassination plot. She is reluctant to reveal her intentions to her wife, Portia, but yields to her persuasion. Caesar’s wife Calpurnia, frightened by dreams and omens, tries to persuade Caesar not to go to the Capitol. She agrees, but Decius reinterprets the omens in a favourable light, and she decides to go, disregarding a warning on the way from Artemidorus. When Caesar refuses to grant Metellus Cimber’s suit, the conspirators kill him. Caesar’s friend Mark Antony meets the conspirators, who allow her to speak at Caesar’s funeral following Brutus’ own speech. Brutus justifies their action to the citizens and receives their support, but Antony’s speech rouses them against the conspirators. Brutus and Cassius flee. The angry people kill Cinna the poet, mistaking her for Cinna the conspirator. Antony forms a triumvirate with Octavius, Caesar, and Lepidus. They plan the deaths of the conspirators and form an army. Brutus and Cassius join forces at Sardis, agreeing to fight together at Philippi after a fierce personal quarrel. Messala brings news of happenings at Rome, and reports that Portia has killed herself. Caesar’s ghost visits Brutus at night and warns her that she will meet Brutus at Philippi. The two sides parley, then the battle begins. Thinking they are defeated, Cassius orders her servant Pindarus to kill her. He does so, but it is then revealed that the news was misleading, as Brutus had gained an advantage. A further battle leads to Brutus’ defeat, and she too commits suicide. Antony and Octavius acknowledge Brutus’ nobility, and arrange to bury her with honour. Octavius’ reign as Emperor begins.

The founding of the FOE in 1898 was a result of the collaboration between a Seattle theatre owner and one of the largest travelling vaudeville circuits in the United States. Soon after the founding of the FOE, the new Northwest District of what would become the International Association of Theatre and Stage Employees (IATSE) realized that, by joining the FOE, they could use their lodges, called Aeries, to help resolve labour issues with the producers of the shows, as well as between local people and those who travelled with the shows. Using the rapidly multiplying Eagles’ lodges throughout the United States and Canada, the Northwest District proposed a labour arrangement with the founders of the FOE whereby the Union would assume responsibility for supplying the myriad performance production staff required by the shows. By 1913, the Eagles had more than one million members and IATSE had adopted the labour-supply idea, still called Yellow Card Shows (Eagles membership cards are yellow), throughout North America. Although the FOE and IATSE are no longer connected in any way, their initial collaboration assured a strong future for both organizations. The Eagles are proud that our mutually-beneficial relationship has come full circle at 17 Elm Street.
