About
Before there was Julius Caesar, there was Coriolanus — a legend on the battlefield, a disaster in the public square. Shakespeare's fierce and primal tragedy follows the celebrated warrior who knows how to conquer enemies but not how to win hearts. Meanwhile in Rome, unrest brews as a famine-stricken underclass challenges the ruling elite. Enter Coriolanus, a celebrated hero whose contempt for politics may cost him everything. From thunderous victory to shattering downfall, this play delivers sweeping action sequences, political intrigue, and a theatrical experience that hits with the force of a battle drum.
