Cry Havoc! Ask Questions Later takes place two years after Julius Caesar failed to beware the Ides of March and got stabbed to death by a band of well-wishers. Now the assassins have been rounded up and slaughtered in battle, so we can all breathe a sigh of relief. But who’s in charge now? 
With things on the verge of absolute collapse, the cool and calculating Cleopatra, the Queen of the Nile, has swung by for an extended visit. She’s eager to renew an alliance with Rome by any means necessary – including marriage and/or murder. 
A dramatic comedy of power politics, whirlwind romances, and running fast to get nowhere 
Created by David K. Barnes 
Directed by Amani Zardoe 
Executive Producers Alexander J Newall & April Sumner 
Written by David K. Barnes, Grace Knight, Maud Dromgoole, Robert Valentine, Octavia Bray, Rhys Tirado, Tom Crowley, Sarah Shachat, and Rafaella Marcus

Wonderful

Love this show!

Bearasaurus Rex II ,

A real gem ❤️

Another brilliant show from the mind of David K Barnes! Soundscaping is great and I love the music 💕

Marky Mark 696969 ,

A let-down

This might have been tailor-made for me, being very interested in Ancient Rome and a massive fan of Wooden Overcoats. But, having got as far as episode 5, I have to say it just isn’t funny. Disappointing.
