King Lear is Shakespeare’s thunderous tragedy of power, pride, and the cost of not listening. An aging king tests his three daughters with a contest of flattery, rewarding the scheming Goneril and Regan while banishing the honest Cordelia and his loyal Kent. As Lear’s authority unravels, a parallel betrayal unfolds with Gloucester and his sons, Edmund and Edgar, until storms rage on the heath and in the mind of a father who finally sees the truth too late. Each production brings fresh urgency to its questions of loyalty and justice, with raw emotion, jolting reversals, and language that still cuts. New stagings appear year-round, and new dates are added regularly.
