A permanent company of actors is used for all three plays, with leading roles taken by Robert Hardy, Beatrix Lehmann, Roland Culver, Barry Jones, Peter Cush-ing, and Mary Morris. The premiere program on Tuesday, "The Hero," presents Acts I and II of "Coriolanus." The cast includes Robert Hardy as the warlike general, Coriolanus, Beatrix Lehmann as his mother, Jerome Willis as the barbarian, TuHus Aufidius, and Roland Culver as Menenhis Agrippa. Dews sees the series as an enactment of three tragedies involving powerful men who, in their political maneuvering for fame and selfish ends, are defeated by the power of Rome.
