Theatre Prospero is mounting Shakespeare’s stormy King Lear at the Avenue Theatre this spring. King Lear is a journey to self-discovery through physical and mental storms. At the court and on the wind ravaged heath you will meet false and true daughters, manipulating and loving sons, loyal courtiers, ironically truthful fools and an old father and king who must learn the truth the hard way. Come and be rocked by the stormy world of insincere and sincere words in our intimate, in-the-round playing space at the Avenue Theatre.
Theatre Prospero has been bringing Shakespeare to students in their schools and to the public in different venues throughout Alberta for over 10 years. This Spring’s offering of William Shakespeare’s King Lear is directed by Theatre Prospero’s artistic director Mark Henderson and features Christopher Kelk, Richard Beaune, April Killins, Adam Burgess, Samantha Duff and Joelle Prefontaine.
