Event information

Join Cornwall's Miracle Theatre at this wild and unique location in the grounds of Stowe Barton (NT). The performance will take place in the fields close by the farmhouse, car park and toilets.

King Lear is an exquisitely dark tale about a family squabble that grows out of all proportion, blowing up into a storm of deadly force. It’s Shakespeare’s most elemental and passionate play.

This fresh and fast-paced adaptation of Shakespeare’s text - pared down to its bare essentials and performed by a cast of five – tells a shocking, yet tender, story of ageing and madness, fuelled by ambition and fired by betrayal.

Shakespeare loved to weave theatrical magic out of tragedy in a way that is never far from farce, making King Lear ripe for Miracle’s offbeat treatment!
