Play :: We that are young, shall never see so much, nor live so long'. The 1960s are in full swing and the stage is set for the ageing King Lear to bestow his kingdom on 'younger strengths'. As he battles with changing times and circumstances, and unexpected enemies, Lear embarks on a journey of self discovery. This tragic tale of power, madness and betrayal, set in the swinging sixties, is an abridgement of Shakespeare's King Lear.
