With themes of pride and arrogance at its core, Coriolanus examines what it means to be loyal to a parent, to a leader and to a country – and how those choices can redeem or destroy us.

western’ is the inspiration behind this hilarious Wild-West
love story, where two fierce kindred spirits finally meet their
match in each other. Petruchio, the sharpest-shooting cowboy in
the West meets Kate, the prickliest gal in Padua, and their throw-down
contest of wills and wits will leave you laughing out loud as they
bicker and battle their way towards a splendid, healing love.
