The streets are full of protest. Economic inequality strains the social fabric. Debates rage throughout a nation riddled with dissension and distrust. It’s election year in Rome, 493 B.C.E., and as unscrupulous politicians manipulate public opinion, the hypocrisy and humiliation of political campaigns drive away the country’s finest. But beneath this political drama looms the personal tragedy of one principled man’s emotional blindness.
Red Bull's visceral new production is led by Dion Johnstone (Stratford Festival’s Othello, Titus, Macbeth) as Coriolanus in his New York Debut, Broadway luminary Patrick Page (Cymbeline, Spring Awakening) as Menenius, and Royal Shakespeare Company veteran Lisa Harrow (Wit, The Omen) as Volumnia.
