Publisher's Summary

Rome is a city divided, nobility and common-people locked in mutual suspicion. The patrician Caius Marcius, later called Coriolanus, is Rome's greatest soldier, but his proud refusal to accommodate himself to the demands of the plebeians leads to banishment and death.

A Roman history as well as tragedy, Coriolanus is a complex and subtle exploration of the themes of absolution and compromise, both in the political world and in the life of the individual.

Paul Jesson plays Coriolanus, and Marjorie Yates is Volumnia. Ewan Hooper plays Menenius.

Solid But Not My Favorite.

Just getting back into Shakespeare... Enjoyed it but I think I'll be glad that I started back with this one as opposed to some of the more popular works.

Well read and performed. The cast kept it entertaining.
