On this day ! #coriolanus
As a brief taster (or reminder for anyone who was there with us)…
A fragment of the work as it happened, this evening twelve years ago… combining a few minutes of the live sound and camera feeds, as they were captured and broadcast in performance…

quoting note1cta…jsxcFrom the archive: #coriolanus
Three Olympics ago, twelve years ago this week, for the Cultural Olympiad of the London 2012 games…
We realised our very large-scale performance work ‘Coriolan/us’ - a reimagining of Shakespeare’s ‘Coriolanus’ for and as public space, performed in a vast decommissioned WW2 aircraft hangar in South Wales, jointly produced by National Theatre Wales and the Royal Shakespeare Company…
A work that, unfortunately, still feels current…
‘What is the city but the people?’
- Shakespeare’s Coriolanus
