NEW - KING LEAR at the Delacorte Theater in Central Park - Talkin' Broadway's Review

Posted by:	T.B._Admin. 08:00 pm EDT 08/05/14

Matthew Murray takes a look at King Lear: For a god, he's certainly not in control, is he? Losing his land, losing his daughters, losing his possessions, losing his sanity, and losing his life — in more or less that order — are more events you'd associate with a man, and an ordinary one at that. But the title character in the new production of King Lear at the Delacorte Theater in Central Park can't possibly be anything that mundane, not when he's so accustomed to the earth, sky, and everything in between bending to his every whim. These are the powers he's always known, and they can't dissipate that quickly. . . .
