Plebeians didn't have an actual role in the play. Although Plebeians were important they were the ones that Mark Antony and Brutus were trying to manipulate. Rome only runs in what the Plebeians say. If they say they don't want that person to be king;he will not, if they say he shall then he will. Even though the Plebeians are illiterate they still understand the right and wrong. They are very fickle, easily swayed and manipulated. If you have realised, in Mark Antony's speech,(in the film) the plebeians follow each other as an "Mexican wave" if one plebeian says 'The will, the will! we will hear Caesar's will!' everyone else copy's and repeats the same words.

Hope that helped!
