NT Live: King Lear
Ian McKellen stars in Shakespeare's famous tragedy, from the National Theatre's 2018 season of live recordings direct from the London stage.
"Two ageing fathers - one a King, one his courtier - reject the children who truly love them. Their blindness unleashes a tornado of pitiless ambition and treachery as family and state are plunged into a violent power struggle with shocking ends." (NT Live)
