Mansfield Brutus Delivers Sir Henry Irving Level Power
A Herald Square production of Julius Caesar features Richard Mansfield as Brutus who achieves noble dignity and restrained force. Arthur Forrest as Antony stirs crowds with the celebrated oration while Joseph Haworth’s Cassius and Mansfield’s overall concept earn high praise. The revival’s set and costumes echo Tree’s London staging but crowding and an absent Caesar’s ghost mar the effect.
