PHOTOS: King Lear at Good Luck Macbeth

Date:

King Lear at Good Luck MacbethRussia in the 1500s provides a great setting for drama and violence.

This is Good Luck Macbeth’s version of Shakespeare’s great tragedy, “King Lear.” The dialog is intense as you would expect from a Shakespeare play. The action is equally intense as well.

What struck me from the start was the costuming — absolutely brilliant! It is very colorful and very fitting for this production.

Full of action, fights and stunts, this is a bit bloody but deliciously so. Trust me, you will not be bored with GLM’s version of King Lear.

Check out the photo gallery below for a taste of what you will see.

For me,  Scot Rankin stole the show playing The Fool with such in such a delightfuly mesmerizing way. His performance is worth the price of admission alone.
