BWW catches up with actor Edmund Dehn to chat about bringing Lear Alone to the 2023 Edinburgh Festival Fringe.

Using just King Lear's lines from Shakespeare's timeless tragedy to explore themes of loneliness, ageing and homelessness, Lear Alone is a study of one man's vulnerability as he confronts and negotiates a digital world.

Once the final episode is released on 8 August, the full playlist of all five episodes will remain available to view until the end of the month so that people can watch the piece in its entirety, more akin to watching a play.

Presented as a tribute to German playwright Rolf Hochhuth who died in May, Death of a Hunter is the fourth play by Rolf Hochhuth presented at the Finborough Theatre, following Soldiers, The Representative and Summer 14: A Dance of Death. The Finborough production opened on Hochhuth's 87th birthday.

Death of a Hunter sees Ernest Hemingway fighting his demons at once in the last harrowing hour of his life. Unable to write like he used to, he questions the ghosts of his past and examines the path that's lead him to that point. Finborough Theatre sees the English language premiere of Rolf Hochhuth's piece in a new adaptation by Peter Thiers (and in a translation by Peter Sutton).

The UK and English language premiere of Death of a Hunter opens at the Finborough Theatre on Sunday, 1 April 2018 for nine Sunday and Monday evenings and Tuesday matinees including a performance in German on Tuesday, 10 April 2018 (Press Night: Monday, 2 April 2018 at 7.30pm).
