About Shakespeare for White Trash -29- Coriolanus
Canadian author Crad Kilodney created the “Shakespeare For White Trash” series to make Shakespeare understandable and enjoyable to the many millions of people living now who have little or no knowledge of Shakespeare, and to prove to them that the stories contained in Shakespeare's plays are superb. The plots and characters are unchanged, but everything else has been radically restyled. Read Crad's versions and you will become a Shakespeare fan. Enjoy!<br><br>Kilodney originally posted his versions on Wordpress.com from 2010 to shortly before his death in 2014. It was the first time that all 38 of Shakespeare’s plays had been rewritten by one author and published in one place. They are re-packaged here to increase the likelyhood of people, like you, finding them. <br><br>Mr. Kilodney hoped acting companies would be encouraged to stage these plays more often.<br><br><i><b>Gist of the story:</b></i> This play takes place in the early years of the Roman Republic, circa 493 B.C.<br>Caius Martius, a Roman general, is heroic in battle against a barbarian tribe known as the Volsces. He<br>captures their capital of Corioles, for which he is given the honourary name of Coriolanus. The Roman<br>Senate nominates him for Consul, but he must be approved by the common people (plebeians), whom<br>he despises. An inflexible man, he is really unsuited for political office. He forces himself to speak to<br>the people, and at first they approve him. But two hostile tribunes, Brutus and Sicinius, instigate a<br>show of public hostility and accuse Coriolanus of treason. As punishment, he is banished from Rome.<br>Furious at such treatment, he goes to the Volsces and offers to lead their army against Rome. The<br>leader of the Volsces, Aufidius, accepts the offer. Coriolanus leads the Volscian army and is on the<br>verge of capturing Rome when his mother pleads with him to make peace. He agrees and takes the<br>army back to the Volscian town of Antium to explain what has happened. Aufidius, however, accuses<br>Coriolanus of betrayal, and his henchmen assassinate the Roman general.<br>(Historically at this time the plebeians, or common people, were gaining some power, so the theme of<br>class conflict is prominent in the first half of the play. Coriolanus is a patrician, or noble, who is<br>against giving power to the people, so he is very much a reactionary. His inflexibility and short temper<br>are tragic flaws in an otherwise noble, heroic character. So, like some other characters in Shakespeare,<br>he fits the formula for a protagonist in a Greek tragedy. And like the protagonists of Greek tragedies,<br>we can appreciate him without having to like him. This is the way he comes across in Shakespeare’s<br>original. However, in this restyling I think our white trash audience will like him, despite his class<br>consciousness.)<br></br></br></br></br></br></br></br></br></br></br></br></br></br></br></br></br></br></br></br></br></br></br></br></br></br></br>
