About this event
King Lear is an exquisitely dark tale about a family squabble that grows out of all proportion, blowing up into a storm of deadly force. It’s Shakespeare’s most elemental and passionate play. Shakespeare loved to weave theatrical magic out of tragedy in a way that is never far from farce, making King Lear ripe for Miracle’s offbeat treatment!

This fresh and fast-paced adaptation of Shakespeare’s text – pared down to its bare essentials and performed by a cast of five – tells a shocking, yet tender, story of ageing and madness, fuelled by ambition and fired by betrayal.
