KING LEAR to Open at Long Beach Shakespeare Company This Month

The Long Beach Shakespeare Company will present King Lear.

An old, arrogant ruler, King Lear, decides to pass on the crown, bur first tests and divides the kingdom amongst three daughters. In a fit of rage, Lear banishes the youngest daughter Cordelia. The two eldest daughters of Lear reveal their true natures and betray his trust. Lear's world and reign collapses with tragedy for all. Shakespeare's epic and hauntingly tragic story of a Royal family, torn apart by love, greed and madness. Brought to life on the stage of the Helen Borgers Theater and directed by the Long Beach Shakespeare Company's Artistic Director Holly Leveque.
