Overview of this event
In an unforgettable finale to their 2025 season, Belvoir brings the house down with Shakespeare's greatest play King Lear, starring multi-award-winning stage and screen legend Colin Friels.
Led by Eamon Flack, Belvoir's Artistic Director, and featuring an all-star cast of thirteen, including Friels' real-life daughter Charlotte Friels (ABC's Plum, Ensemble Theatre's Colder Than Here), Shakespeare's tragic tale is a profoundly moving exploration of the trappings of privilege, education and civilisation, and the deficits of the human condition.
It's time to retire. Lear has a plan – he'll divide the kingdom between his three daughters, they'll work in harmony with each other, he'll live with them, there will be a seamless transition of power, and all will be well.
The universe doesn't work that way.
Experience the beauty and horror, love and power of Shakespeare's crowning jewel.
