Fathom Events and BY Experience bring the Stratford Festival’s critically acclaimed performance of King Lear to cinemas for a memorable one-night event. An aging monarch resolves to divide his kingdom among his three daughters, with consequences he little expects. His reason shattered in the storm of violent emotion that ensues, with his very life hanging in the balance, Lear loses everything that has defined him as a king – and thereby discovers the essence of his own humanity.

Reviews

BoardChiri Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay

Portia Hilton Blistering performances.
Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
