Et 2: Protesters storm ‘Caesar’

- Chris Perez, Joe Marino

Once more unto the breach!

The Public Theater’s performanc­e of “Julius Caesar” was interrupte­d again Sunday night when two protesters, one shouting, “Liberal hate kills,” stormed the stage in Central Park.

Salvatore Cipolla (left), 28, of Oceanside, LI, and Javanni Valle (right), 26, of Brooklyn, were arrested and charged with trespassin­g and disorderly conduct.

The incident came during the show’s final performanc­e and two nights af- ter a similar protest at the park’s Delacorte Theater.

The Public Theater’s modern staging of “Julius Caesar” has sparked outrage over the depiction of dictator Caesar, who is assassinat­ed, as a President Trump lookalike.
