Famine threatens Rome, and hunger fuels the tensions between the country’s elite and the deprived masses. As civil unrest stirs political upheaval, the war hero Coriolanus is driven to defend and destroy his own country. Shakespeare’s rare and unique tragedy will be fueled by a dynamic female and non-binary ensemble and a muscular, movement-focused staging. This modern translation updates the Bard’s language while lifting the story’s core—and reminds us that democracy is fragile and always worth defending.

Portland Shakespeare Project, in collaboration with The Actor's Conservatory, are pleased to present their production of Hamlet this spring. Tormented by his father’s death and brimming with revenge, Hamlet avenges his father. As he plots to expose the truth, the lives of Hamlet’s friends and family unravel around him with tragedy on the horizon.
