Day 61: National Theatre's Live adaptation of King Lear Tonight

Check out the National Theatre's Live adaptation of King Lear at 7:00PM tonight at the State Theatre. National Theatre Live is a groundbreaking initiative to broadcast the best of British theatre to cinemas around the world. The first season of events, which began in June 2009 with the acclaimed production of Phèdre starring Helen Mirren, was seen by over 165,000 people on 320 screens in 22 countries. 

An ageing monarch. A kingdom divided. A child's love rejected. As Lear's world descends into chaos, all that he once believed is brought into question. One of the greatest works in western literature, King Lear explores the very nature of human existence: love and duty, power and loss, good and evil. Tickets are $15, $12 for Seniors, & $10 for Students. For more information, click here.
