A Coproduction of NCPA and Li Liuyi Studio King Lear in Beijing

Date: Jan 20-28 - 7:30 pm

Venue: National Center for the Performing Arts

Price: 180-680 yuan

King Lear is NCPA's third production of a Shakespearean play, after A Midsummer Night's Dream and Hamlet, this time in cooperation with Li Liuyi's Drama Estudio in Beijing. As a tribute to the master playwright, the NCPA has extended a special invitation to the script supervisor of the Royal Shakespeare Company to coach the actors, and selected Yang Shipeng's rendering as the rehearsal script. German-born set designer, Michael Simon and Academy Award winner for Best Costume Design, Emi Wada combine talents to recreate the bard's cast of characters and ruined palace. Additionally, the renowned theater actor, Pu Cunxin, gives a stark portrayal of Lear's departure from the height of glory and lapse into vagrancy. Lear's three daughters' vastly different personalities are brought to life on stage by Yang Qi, Lu Fang, and Wan Qianhui, respectively.
