Christmas at the Lears', 2014. The king is upstaged as Shakespeare's tragedy is told through the eyes of its female protagonists. Combining live music with Shakespeare's original text, Lear's Daughters strips away national politics to tackle the domestic heartbreak at the centre of this much-loved tale. Follow three sisters as they struggle to look after their ailing father whilst asserting themselves in what was once a man's world. "We are his flesh, his blood, his daughters - or rather a disease that's in his flesh, that I must needs call mine"| 9 Dec 14 to 20 Dec 14 | The Hope Theatre Inner London, Greater London Performance Details => Venue archive |
