  3. King Lear


Take away the crowns and swords, and the themes of King Lear are universal: communication failure, family feuds, the pain of betrayal, and the inevitability of aging. This classic tale of a kingdom divided storms the BAM Harvey Theater in a new production directed by Angus Jackson, one of the UK’s most promising directors. Featuring the brilliant Frank Langella (Frost/Nixon) in the title role, this story of an aging monarch’s descent into madness exposes the complex brutality and miraculous clarity of Shakespeare’s language.
