THE HUDSON SHAKESPEARE COMPANY PRESENTS -CORIOLANUS All-female Shakespeare tours Jersey City and surrounding counties

he Hudson Shakespeare Company returns with its second and final installment of its 28th summer Shakespeare touring season with a unique spin on the little done play – Coriolanus.

Hudson Shakespeare Company was begun in 1992 and for 28 seasons has toured free Shakespeare to parks and libraries in northern New Jersey presenting the Bard’s well known and lesser done titles in a variety of settings and periods.

The Play Shakespeare’s exploration of military honor, corrupt politics and complicated family relations are shifted from a traditional Roman setting to an ancient, fantasy world with an all-female cast. Based on the semi-legendary, semi-historical figure of Caius Marcius Coriolanus, this is not yet the Rome of Julius Caesar but tells a hard bitten tale of centuries before the classical republic and eventual empire. A country still working itself out. Director Noelle Fair showcases an Amazonian world taking many influences from both historical (women warrior societyie of ancient Eastern Europe) and fantasy sources (Wonder Woman, Game of Thrones), underscoring it with a percussive and female driven soundtrack.

Maricus (Abby Albrecht) is a career soldier fiercely driven by duty to her country, her wife Virgilia (Norah Hogan) and family but has a vast contempt for the common people.

The Plebeians, in her view, are beneath her as they won’t defend and shed blood for their country, but they bask in the security she and the other soldiers provide. Word soon comes that Aufidius (Alexandra Taylor), a general in the hostile, neighboring Abby Albrecht Coriolanus) city-state of Volsce and Marcius’ long-time enemy, is mounting a military campaign. Marcius, along with her fellow generals Cominius (Ziggy Schulting) and Titus (Emmy Kuperschmid), meet the threat in the Volsce city of Corioli.

At Corioli, the Romans are overrun until Marcius Alexandra Taylor (Aufidius) single-handedly breaks through the enemy’s forces and humiliates Aufidius in one-on-one combat.

The troops return triumphantly to Rome and having won a decisive victory in Corioli, Marcius is granted the honorary name of Coriolanus to commemorate the victory.

However, what Marcius Maggie Schweppe (Volumnia) sees as her simple duty, her mother Volumnia (Maggie Schweppe) and her mentor Menenius (Amanda Cook) see as an opportunity for political advancement. The office of Consul, similar to the Secretary of Defense, is up for election but Marcius must get the vote of the very people who she Amanda Cook (Menenius) hates and who hate her.

Complicating matters, the city’s Plebian representatives, the cunning Tribune Sicinius (Mia Christinis) and the blunt Tribune Brutus (Klara Gribetz) openly plot to thwart Marcius’ nomination.

Receiving pressure from her overbearing mother Norah Hogan (Virgilia) and allies, Marcius

the political victory of Sicinius and Brutus is short-lived as Marcius goes to the home of her enemy Aufidius and raises an army to destroy Rome.

Will they succeed in their military invasion or will more subtle and familiar forces stop the vengeful Ziggy Schulting (Cominius) Coriolanus?

The Hudson Shakespeare Company production of “Coriolanus” is directed

by Noelle Fair.

The production is touring many libraries and parks throughout northern New Jersey: Hudson County performances Thursday July 18th @ Emmy Kuperschmid (Titus 7pm Kenndy Blvd. beLartius/Young Marcius) tween Hutton Street and Manhattan AvenueLeonard Gordon Park, Jersey City, NJ Thursday July 25th @ 7pm Hamilton Park 9th Street and Jersey Avenue, Jersey City, NJ (Rain Location – Under park gazebo) All of the above shows are free to the public.
