An aging king resolves to divide his kingdom among his three daughters, with repercussions he little expects. With his very life hanging by a thread, Lear loses everything that defined him as a monarch – and thereby reveals the core of his own humanity. One of Calgary’s finest actors, Stephen Hair, stars in the titular role.
