Broadcast London National Theatre Production: King Lear
Pricing: Tickets $18 ($16 members, $14 students, $5 children 15 and under). Advance registration required; capacity is limited. No refunds.
Considered by many to be the greatest tragedy ever written, Ian McKellen is King Lear in Shakespeare’s tender, violent, moving, and shocking play. King Lear sees two aging fathers—one a King, one his courtier—reject the children who truly love them. Their blindness unleashes a tornado of pitiless ambition and treachery, as family and state are plunged into a violent power struggle with bitter ends. Johnathan Munby directs this ‘nuanced and powerful’ (The Times) contemporary retelling.
The Clark broadcasts a recording of this production, filmed live from London.
