In a world filled with cacophony, we seem to be lost in the game of communication. Languages we use fail to express our true selves, but rather have become the dangerous tool to gain personal benefits. Language fails to bridge the talkers but rather pushes ourselves in the game of telling truth from false, which coerces us to be isolated, and eventually to the state of madness. Bearing such insight, Dennis Yueh-Yeh Li, the Associate Artistic Director of the Living Theatre, attempts to examine the madness in language through L.EAR, the adaptation of Shakespeare's 'King Lear.' L.EAR will be presented by Dixon Place as a work-in-progress production today, January 26th at 7:30pm at Dixon Place, at 161A Chrystie Street.
