Servilius Casca, one of the conspirators, was afraid and told Mark Antony vaguely about the conspiracy.

Mark Antony fled when he heard the commotion from the portico. The Theatre of Pompey was the venue where the sessions of the senate were being temporarily held while a new senate house was under construction.
Octavian did not necessarily want to kill Marc Antony. He wanted to wage war against him because the two men were locked into a fight over who would become the sole ruler of Rome and her territories.

According to the ancient historian Appian, Marc Antony presented Caesar as a tribune of the plebeians who was sacrosanct (could not be hurt without the violators being subject of religious sanction) and that the plebeians (the mass of the people) had a duty to protect him. He straightened Caesar's bier, praised him as a deity and listed his battles and victories. He stripped Caesar's clothes from his body, put them on a pole and waived them. In Appian there is no mention of Marc Antony naming any of the conspirators. His account is not wholly reliable because he wrote a long time after the event and ancient historians usually used to make up the content of speeches. However, is not saying that Marc Antony named the conspirators could be reliable.

Mark Antony led the run in the feast of Lupercalia, which shows his interest in games and a sporting nature.
