“How sharper than a serpent’s tooth it is to have a thankless child!”
Scoot up to the edge of your couch and get ready for “King Lear.” Producing Artistic Director Matt Wallace set Shakespeare’s royal family tragedy in iron age England, and the production features Jon Huffman, who the WFPL said was “destined to play” the aging king, the “breathtaking performance” (said Insider Louisville) of Neill Robertson as Edgar, and the Arts-Louisville Broadway World Award winner Jennifer Pennington as Gloucester.
