Coriolanus is a nuanced exploration of the double-edged danger of populism, showcasing a war hero's political ascent and tragic fall.

  • Tragedy
  • Oyelowo is superb in the fight scenes, but he doesn't let the audience in.

  • David Oyelowo makes a scorching return to the UK stage in this tightly focused, ferocious staging of Shakespeare’s Roman play.

  • This arresting production of Coriolanus stylishly presents its themes of loyalty, betrayal, and arrogance even as it leaves open possible motives behind them.
