A collision between Shakespeare's King Lear, Sesame Street, and Young Jean Lee's own take on the theme of dealing with a father's mortality, Lee's LEAR focuses not on the aging Lear and Gloucester, but rather on their adult children who turned their backs on their fathers' suffering. An absurdist tragedy about familial piety, despair, and the end of life.
