Lost Lear is a moving and darkly comic remix of Shakespeare's King Lear, told from the point of view of Joy, a person living with dementia who exists within an old memory of rehearsing the play. Joy's delicately maintained reality is upended by the arrival of her estranged son. Using puppetry, projection, and live video effects, the audience is drawn into Joy's world as layers of past and present, fiction and reality, overlap and distort. A Scotsman Fringe First Award winner at the 2025 Edinburgh Festival Fringe, the production is presented in partnership with PURE Theatre.
