Directed by Thomas Weaver Starring J. Clark Nicholson as King Lear
“Who is it that can tell me who I am?”
Madness, treachery, and redemption descend like a storm in one of Shakespeare’s greatest tragedies. When the aging King Lear decides to divide his realm among his three daughters, an arrogant reaction sets in motion a dangerous tale of loyalty, deception, and the brutal cost of pride. As Lear grapples with the unraveling of his family and his mind, the play explores the limitless depths of human suffering and forgiveness. J. Clark Nicholson returns to the stage as the troubled king in this timeless masterpiece of power, betrayal, and the tragic fragility of existence.
