King Lear - Power, Madness and the Fall of a King

King Lear is one of William Shakespeare’s greatest tragedies, a devastating drama of power, family conflict, and human suffering. When the ageing King Lear divides his kingdom among his daughters, demanding declarations of love in return, vanity and deception unleash betrayal, cruelty, and madness. Cast out and broken, Lear wanders into storm and despair while the fate of the realm collapses around him. Profound, emotional, and unforgettable, King Lear is a timeless masterpiece about pride, loyalty, justice, and redemption.
