About This Show

An Olympian plunge into the depths of madness and despair. In the twilight of his reign, King Lear prepares to hand over the kingdom of Britain to his daughters. But his pride, arrogance and blindness to the true natures of those closest to him plunge him into a nightmare. Lost, forsaken, at the mercy of a storm that rages within and without, Lear is forced to confront his mistakes and his newly discovered humanity in one of the most powerful tragedies of all time.
