Antony and Cleopatra Act 3
Notes de l’épisode
In which brave Ventidius returns with victory’s stern gift, whilst Rome conspires with whispers and wiles around the fractured bonds of love and power, and Cleopatra’s keen eyes measure the shadow of her rival; the tides of war and passion swell together as Antony’s heart, tied fast to Egypt, quails and rages before the spectre of Caesar’s rising might. The stage is set for thunderous conflict, where honour wrestles with desire, and men and kingdoms alike are cast upon the fickle seas of fortune.
