King Lear
drama
Yury Butusov's brilliant, award-winning staging of King Lear tells us a story in which the
collapse of a family, the collapse of a country, and the collapse of an individual are all
connected to each other. In Shakespeare's classic work, Lear imagined himself to be
God's equal - and so he divided his kingdom between his daughters just to see what
would happen. Featuring 4 time Golden Mask Award-winning actor Konstantin Raikin as
Lear.
