Caius Martius Coriolanus is a fearless soldier but a reluctant leader. His ambitious mother attempts to carve him a path to political power, but he struggles to change his nature and do what is required to achieve greatness. In this new city state struggling to find its feet, where the gap between rich and poor is widening every day, Coriolanus must decide who he really is and where his allegiances lie.

 

Rome Season Director, Angus Jackson, completes the collection of Shakespeare’s Roman plays with a visceral production which sees Sope Dirisu (One Night in Miami, Donmar Warehouse, 2016) take on the title role.

 

Dirisu’s strong performance becomes richer and more powerful as the story unfolds & there is also strong support from Haydn Gwynne as his intelligent, ambitious mother Volumnia!
