Foolish Production Co. To Present Shakespeare's CORIOLANUS In Hollywood This September
The production is part of the company’s 2025/2026 #outRAGEouslyFoolish season.
Foolish Production Co. will present a bold new staging of Coriolanus, Shakespeare’s political tragedy of war, betrayal, and revenge, running Fridays through Sundays from September 12–28, 2025 at The Art of Acting Studio in Hollywood. The production is part of the company’s 2025/2026 #outRAGEouslyFoolish season, which explores themes of vengeance, activism, and community.
A raw and relentless exploration of power, pride, and betrayal, Coriolanus follows the rise and fall of Roman general Caius Martius Coriolanus, whose battlefield triumphs are no match for the brutal world of Roman politics. Urged toward leadership by his ambitious mother and the will of the people, Coriolanus’s refusal to compromise leads to exile—and to a devastating alliance with his sworn enemy.
The cast will be led by Nick Molari in the title role, alongside Jahel Corban Caldera* as Aufidius and Libby Wahlmeier as Volumnia. The creative team includes Celina Lee Surniak (Intimacy & Fight Director, Sound Designer), Katherine Landreth (Costume & Scenic Designer), Mikey Mulhearn (Sound & Scenic Designer), Ray Jones (Lighting Designer), and Mulhearn also serves as Director and Rescriptor.
Performances will take place at The Art of Acting Studio in Hollywood. Tickets range from $10–$50.
Coriolanus is presented as an Equity Approved Showcase.
