Live from the Internationally acclaimed Donmar Warehouse:
The Donmar’s Artistic Director, Michael Grandage directs Derek Jacobi as King Lear. An ageing monarch. A kingdom divided. A child’s love rejected. As Lear’s world descends into chaos, all that he once believed is brought into question. One of the greatest works in western literature, King Lear explores the very nature of human existence: love and duty, power and loss, good and evil.

'London has not seen so moving and intelligent a production of KING LEAR in years. And, who knows, it may be still more extraordinary in cinematic close-up when screened worldwide as part of National Theatre Live.' Variety

'The finest King Lear I have ever seen'
'A Lear to rank with the greatest'
Daily Telegraph
