In William Shakespeare's comic tale of love, misunderstandings and trickery, Beatrice and Benedick are a bickering pair who clearly belong together. So Beatrice's cousin Hero and her newly betrothed love Claudio conspire to trick the enemies into falling in love. Meanwhile, a plot is afoot to ruin Hero and Claudio's wedding, and then there's the comic policeman's watch led by the bombastic Constable Dogberry. Ethan McSweeny directs a cast featuring Derek Smith, Adrian Sparks and David Emerson Toney for the Shakespeare Theatre Company.

Political Thriller Coriolanus From Shakespeare Theatre Company

Full Price:
$63.00 - $95.00
Our Price:
$31.50 - $47.50

Shakespeare's final tragedy is also considered one of his greatest. Coriolanus is the politically charged story of Rome's greatest warrior, whose stubborn hubris spurs him in battle but alienates the common people at home when he becomes a politician. Raised to be a hero by his prideful mother, Coriolanus refuses to compromise, even to save his own life. Exiled from his country, the warrior returns to what he knows best, vowing to take bloody revenge on the people who rejected him. Only the love and conviction of his family can overcome his hunger for vengeance and save Rome from its former hero. Learn More

Top rate theatre - beautiful set, sprightly music, innovative setting in Cuba and of course, wonderful acting. Comedy is the hardest to do well - this was superb.

The show was set in 1930s Cuba and the adaptation was great. I particularly loved the music - it really lent the story some real heat and passion. This is one of my favorites and the Benedict/Beatrice battle of the wits played up with some physical comedy so worked!
