It's King Lear. But there's no King Lear. Experimental playwright and Doris Duke Artist Award winner Young Jean Lee has penned a whimsical and psychologically disturbing look at a world in which the pater familias is noticeably absent.

This is James D Palmer's return to Lee's work after Church/Pullman, WA, one of Time Out Chicago's Top Plays of 2011.
