In this classic and timeless tragedy, King Lear descends into
madness after foolishly disposing of his estate between two of his
three daughters, a decision that will bring tragic consequences for
all. The play is based on the legend of Leir of Britain, a
mythological pre-Roman Celtic king. It has been widely adapted for
the stage and motion pictures and the role of King Lear has been
coveted and played by many of the world's most accomplished actors.
The play was written between 1603 and 1606 and later revised. King
Lear is particularly noted for its probing observations on the
nature of human suffering and kinship. The great George Bernard
Shaw once stated that no one will ever write a better tragedy than
King Lear.
