Eleusis Collective's King Lear
Eleusis Collectives production of William Shakespeare's King Lear is a site-specific and promenade production where audience and actors travel together through a rural Iowa farm just after the 1980s farming crisis. Installed in an industrial Chicago farm and fueled by an original singer-songwriter score, this political rendering of Lear looks at the play through the eyes of the daughters and asks: how can we free ourselves of our societal coding and simply connect?

Performance dates: June 16th-19th and June 23rd-26th at 7pm
Location: Performances will begin at Read/Write Library, 914 N. California, Walton Entrance, Chicago, IL 60622
Tickets: $20 suggested donation at the door, to reserve your tickets online. Space is limited so reserve early!
