Worlds Elsewhere Theatre Company is proud to announce our 2023 Spring Shakespeare Production!

Streaming live on April 29th at 7pm US ET, director Edward Gibbons-Brown brings us a tech-fabulous take on Shakespeare’s Coriolanus, relating to our current times, both politically and technologically. This under-appreciated story of class division, economic oppression, mass communication, and political vengeance has never been more timely.

The arrogant general Caius Martius, called “Coriolanus” for his victories in war, pursues his political ambitions in a Rome wrestling with its identity in the midst of a popular uprising. However, his pride, rage, and disdain for the lower social class play into the hands of his political rivals…

This is a Pay What You Can event to raise money for our theatre, to cover our costs of this and future productions like it, as we continue our mission to create live performance art in our digital age.

WETC is a 501(c)(3) charity, which means your donation is tax-deductible if you live in the US.

If you donate $20 or more before bows and credits, you'll be invited to a special talkback with members of our cast and crew about the vision and production of this show, to be held in a private zoom room after the curtains fall!

Your support helps us pay our cast and crew members, acquire script and media rights, maintain our technical infrastructure — and drive our pursuit of even greater performances. We work hard to push your donation dollars directly into paying our casts and crews, improving our production quality from show to show, and highlighting our incredibly talented Repertory members as often as we can afford to do so. This is only made possible through the financial support of our wonderful donors and ticket buyers.

For your support now, and in the future, we cannot thank you enough!

Shakespeare's Coriolanus
