Shakespeare at the Tobacco Factory - King Lear
Title role - John Shrapnel
One of the pinnacles of world drama, and Shakespeare’s greatest masterpiece, King Lear is the most complete account we have of what it is – and what it is not – to be human.
At a time when autocratic regimes around the world are under unprecedented threat is has also acquired a new contemporary relevance.
This play was SATTF’s very first production twelve years ago and the company is thrilled to be bringing this new production to a much wider audience in 2012.
John Shrapnel - A fiercely intelligent and commanding actor with a long and enviable track record in both theatre and film, John is fully equipped for one of the greatest of all roles. Now is the time for his Lear.
