The tragedy of King Lear receives an outstanding performance in an all-star cast led by Britain’s senior classical actor, Paul Scofield. He is joined by Alec McCowen as Gloucester, Kenneth Branagh as The Fool, Harriet Walter as Gonerill, Sara Kestelman as Regan, and Emilia Fox as Cordelia.
This tragedy by William Shakespeare, originally written between 1603 and its first known performance in 1607, tells of a king who disposes of his estate between two of his three daughters, based on their flattery, and descends into madness, bringing tragic consequences for all.
This is the ninth recording of Shakespeare plays undertaken by Naxos AudioBooks in conjunction with Cambridge University Press.
