1937: Orson Welles' famous production at the Mercury Theatre
       drew fervoured comment as the director dressed his
       protagonists in uniforms reminiscent of those common at the
       time in Fascist Italy and Nazi Germany, as well as drawing a
       specific analogy between Caesar and Benito Mussolini.
_________
Caesar to be compared w/ such a boorish incompetent like Mussolini

et tu, orson (mork calling orson)
