About the Show

Dividing his kingdom among three daughters, an aging monarch makes a catastrophic error of judgment that plunges him and those around him into a terrible abyss of suffering. This heartrending drama of madness, loss and reconciliation is widely considered to be Shakespeare’s greatest tragedy.

King Lear is presented as part of the 2007 Stratford Festival.
