2025 Fall Season
- Cleopatra - Reign & Ruin
The Marching Royals present Cleopatra: Rise and Fall. Journey to the banks of the Nile, where a young queen seizes Egypt’s throne and commands an empire with unmatched power and allure. Through conquest, love, betrayal, and ultimate sacrifice, her story unfolds in music and motion — from her triumphant rise to her legendary fall. Though her reign ended, her legacy as Egypt’s Queen endures… the final pharaoh CLEOPATRA!
