KING LEAR SHOW Real world - in one part
Based on Shakespeare's King Lear
Is there still hope? Or does the darkness brought about by disasters, crises and upheavals swallow up the light? Raising cosmic questions, Shakespeare’s monumental tragedy examines the current state of our civilisation. As with REX last season, St Petersburg's Alexandrinsky Theatre director Valery Fokin has based his production of Shakespeare’s play on his son Kirill Fokin's adaptation.
