ABOUT KING LEAR

As he approaches old age, King Lear (Conleth Hill) looks to divide his kingdom and power between his three daughters, Goneril, Regan and Cordelia. Through feigned praise and affection, Goneril and Regan, receive their inheritance. Cordelia, the youngest who loves Lear deeply, refuses to flatter her father however and is disinherited and banished.

When Goneril and Regan turn him away from their doors, Lear begins a journey into madness, wandering homeless and destitute with his devoted companion, the Fool.

An unparalleled portrait of power, hubris, greed and betrayal, KING LEAR now runs at the Gate until Sunday 27th April 2025.

“Beautifully done… very moving”
