House of Cleopatra

The charisma of Beyonc�, the influence of Oprah and the wealth of the Kardashians: Cleopatra had it all. 31 BCE finds the most powerful woman in the ancient world, celebrating Egypt's triumph over Rome with an extravagant celebration. But outside the city walls, danger lurks and enemies plot her dynasty's end just as the party hits its crescendo. Set to an original high-octane pop score by Laura Kleinbaum and Jeff Daye, this immersive musical examines history's most mysterious ruler and mixes historical drama with an enveloping spectacle that will leave audiences guessing and grooving all night long.
