The gut-wrenching devastation of Lear encompasses more than one man’s trajectory of power and hubris; it is an affecting, unflinching chronicle of a family as it disintegrates around the mental illness of its patriarch. This spring we invite you to experience, in the midst of tragedy, the healing and transcendent nature of great art.
Directed by Julia Rodriguez-Elliott. This production includes a full original score composed by Robert Oriol. Opened February, 2017 at A Noise Within in Pasadena, and ran in Rep with Ah, Wilderness! and The Man of La Mancha through May 2017.

"I absolutely loved the design choices all around. The high point of the evening was the torture of Gloucester, which was absolutely cringe worthy (in a good way). Hats off to Makeup Designer Danielle Griffith; Scenic Designer Fred Kinney; Lighting Designer Ken Booth; Costume Designer Angela Balogh Calin; Props Master Dillon Nelson; Projection Designer Dave Mickey; and, Composer/Sound Designer Robert Oriol for bringing out the grit and horror so masterfully." - Broadway World, March 2017
