‘Kaleidoscope’
John Blumsky presents another programme on the arts in New Zealand and overseas, in “Kaleidoscope,” tonight on SPTV Featured is the third and final part of "Heil Caesar.”, a dramatised series which shows how Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar still has a message in the twentieth century. In “The Defeat” Brutus (Anthony Bate) and Cassius (David Allister) have to relv on Southern Com-
mand to fight their battles for them.
In the capital, the rest of the conspirators and many who weren’t involved in the conspiracy at all, are kiUed or imprisoned.
Once again Brutus’s moral principles impede the most effective plan of action, as he will not allow Messala (Frank Middlemas) to levy forced loans on the civilian populace in order to pay the soldiers.
This action brings about his downfall and sees Ces sius and Porta (Angela Thorne), together with a few trusted friends, con tinuing the fight as guerrillas while Octavius (Peter Settelen) and Antony (John Stride) are left as uneasy partners. Also in the "Kaleidoscope” programme is a guided tour through the Auckland War Memor a! Museum, conducted by Hamish Keith.
