Abstract: "When Lear decides to divide his kingdom between his three daughters, chaos and madness are the result and the world is turned upside down. Often regarded as Shakespeare's greatest play, King Lear (1605) takes us to the very heart of what it is to be human." "This is a new edition prepared by English Touring Theatre's Artistic Director Stephen Unwin which radically simplifies both punctuation and stage direction, allowing directors, actors and readers to approach this most familiar of plays with a fresh and open mind."--BOOK JACKET.
