UNCSA presents Coriolanus this month! One of Shakespeare's last written tragedies, Coriolanus follows the career of Roman general Caius Marcius who earns his name after defeating the Volscian army, but he struggles to become a leader for the people of Rome. In this production, the cast will play several different characters to enhance the audience's perception of the society. Who holds the power in the end?
