Seamus Lavan

Bread and Circuses is Julius Caesar's long-lost TED talk on leadership mindset. Expect jokes, stunts and laurel-wreathed stupidity as you learn to grind, orate and dominate. Seamus Lavan has been to Hades and back – and French theatre school and back – to bring you this hilaritymaxxed hour of absurdity. There was once a fascist-coded fever dream that was Rome, one that still inspires the look books and playbooks of our present-day not-so-great dictators. 50% clown show, 50% character comedy and 150% life-affirming idiocy – come for the skimpy toga, stay for the stoic wisdom.
