***** 5 star King Lear review from The Stage

 

"This King Lear is an intensely moving experience"

"..wraparound intimacy of the Minerva, in a modern-dress staging that is both urgent and driven"

"Jonathan Munby's production, which plays out on a large circular red velvet carpeted disc that later becomes a barren white chalk stone surface, has the drive and cross-cut dramatic urgency of a Netflix thriller."

"Oliver Fenwick's lighting and the music by Ben and Max Ringham become like additional characters populating and animating the stage."

"There's strong work, too, from Jonathan Bailey as a notably lithe Edgar, Damien Molony as Edmund, and the superb Michael Matus as a blustering Oswald."

 

King Lear starring Ian McKellen review the Minerva Theatre, Chichester – ‘intensely moving’
