In this update of Shakespeare’s classic, the director Richard Sahagun has created a performance that immerses us in a world of ambition, power, corruption and violence, where only the power of love and justice can redeem the characters.
With the collaboration of the visual artist Fernando Bayona in the staging, the play takes on the character of an aesthetic experience, full of striking, dark, disruptive and dreamlike images that reinvent the universe of the English playwright.
A King Lear that will take us into a universe of iron and rust dominated by passions, sex, chaos and revenge. Richard Sahagun’s particular interpretation takes it into the 21st century. His poetic and aesthetic world refreshes the English classic.
