Queen Lear
adapted from King Lear by William Shakespeare
adaptation by Monty Downs
An aloof leader learns the truth about her place in the hearts of kith and kin and lashes out with the fury of a scorned queen. Shakespeare's tragic masterpiece is reimagined as Lear is undone by her own vanity when she asks her daughters to sing her praises and harshly punishes the only one of them who cares enough about her to tell the truth. Lear's act of selfish folly sets her kingdom on a path toward betrayal, war and unspeakable loss from which few will emerge unscathed.
