Coriolanus





National Theatre Live broadcasted the Donmar Warehouse production of William Shakespeare's Coriolanus, with Tom Hiddleston in the title role and Mark Gatiss as Menenius, directed by Josie Rourke, live from their Covent Garden home last month in Strasbourg. 




Here's our friends' informal review. (Spoilers ahead!)





Coriolanus is a play originally written by Shakespeare  between 1605 and 1608. The story was set in ancient Rome, where the empire still ruled and gladiators still fought against each other. It is based on the life of a Roman leader called Caius Marcius Coriolanus, a stubborn soldier with no aptitude for politics. The plot unfolds as his mother Volumnia wants him to become a consul and he is asked by the tribunes to show his support to the people.
