Difficult to believe, but this is the first full production of a Shakespeare play performed by the Antaeus Company, which was founded to keep the classics alive. And that they have, most splendidly with Festivals, challenging new visions like Cousin Bette by Jeffrey Hatcher and Chekhov, but not the Bard - until now. This lavish yet economical King Lear proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that it has been most definitely worth the wait.
