National Theatre Live: King Lear at Bickford Theatre at the Morris Museum

Captured live from Londons West End in 2018, see Ian McKellens extraordinarily moving portrayal (Independent) of King Lear in the Bickford Theatre. Considered by many to be the greatest tragedy ever written, Shakespeares King Lear sees two ageing 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.
