A Day of Small Things | King Lear pt.1 // How NOT to cut Britain in three… // Shaketember 2024 @adayofsmallthings | Uploaded September 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Here's the second choice of mine for Shaketember 2024 - King Lear!
I'll talk about Act 1: the old King Leir story that would have been in the first audience's mind; King James' very own Albany and Cornwall; Lear's awkward question kicking off the blazing row among the family; which characters do Edmund remind you of? and Lear's delusion of authority when he has none. Enjoy!
