Outreach and Educational Theater:

Our members' collective body of knowledge about Ancient Rome is extensive and varied - and we love to share it! We would be thrilled to "step out of the past" and offer one of the following presentations to your class or group (schedule permitting - more of us are available on weekends.)

1. Civilian Life in Rome
Life as a citizen in 1st century Rome varied depending upon who you were. Our interests in the lives of Ancient Roman civilians are as varied as the members of our group. Possible topics for this presentations include, but are not limited to: Childhood in Rome, Cuisine, Fashion and Cosmetics, Games, Metalsmithing, Pottery, Roman Religion, Slaves and Slavery, Theater, Music, Dance, Weaving, Woodworking, Women and Home Life, or another topic that interests you.

2. The Life of the Soldier and the Politician
Life as a soldier in 1st century Rome was hard and adventurous. The Roman legions are celebrated, and after the fall of Rome, it was a thousand years before the western world would see an army its equal. What was life really like for soldiers in the provinces or the politicians who governed Rome? What went through Gaius Julius Caesar's mind just before crossing the Rubicon? Let our soldiers, officers, and auxilliaries tell you.

3. Friends or Foes?
Who were the "enemies of Rome?" What was life like for those communities that did not want to be conquered? How did Romans and "barbarians" see each other?

4. A custom presentation, based on your specific needs and interests. Does your event need gladiatorial games? Do you want Roman soldiers to welcome your guests? Please contact us!
