Cast and Creatives Directed for the stage by Jonathan Munby Directed for the screen by Ian Russell Cast Clive Wood Marc Antony Eve Best Cleopatra Jolyon Coy Octavius Caesar ames Hayes Lepidus Phil Daniels Enobarbus Sirine Saba Charmian Rosie Hilal Octavia full cast notes in the credit roll My notes. Eve Best is known both for her roles such as Beatrice in Much Ado About Nothing and here as Cleopatra but there is more. She also directs for the Globe company (Macbeth) and appears in BBC historical dramas as well. Most recently she is seen in NTLive's production of Oscar Wile's A Woman Of No Importance. I encourage that the original dvd be purchased for libraries so that more may enjoy them as I do. The subtitles are selectable from your media player. Notes written January 27th 2018
