Returning to its roots of staged readings, the San Diego Shakespeare Society will present William Shakespeares tragedy "King Lear" on September 22, 2019, directed by Thomas Haine.In Shakespeares study of family dynamics, the aging King attempts to divide his kingdom based on how much his daughters profess their love. Things do not go as planned: factions and plotting become evident within families, with siblings, parents, and confidants warring and many searching for hope.Its the greatest of all Shakespeares plays. A story of pride, estrangement, reconciliation, self-discovery, forgiveness and redemption. It is a testament to the power and endurance of lovea message that speaks comfort to a world filled with anxiety and fear, says director Thomas Haine.The one-night-only reading is a fundraiser for the Society and will be held at 7:00 pm at the Westminster Theatre in Point Loma. See one of Shakespeare's masterpieces come to life in the hands of some of San Diego's finest actors and "bardophiles"!
