| Every production of KING LEAR that I have seen runs over three hours. Everything connected to this production lists the time as 2:35. Is that the case? If so, how were they able to get it in under three hours? | |

| It is cut, though not more than Shakespeare plays often are. I found the production amateurish and embarrassing; it left me completely cold. |
