To me, it seem slike the classic story of using someone to get what you want (land) and then betraying them.

If we're not going, do we have to read the story and make connections and the like?

This is completely off topic, but did you know that today is " World Fair Trade Day" ? It supposedly started in 2005, and it always happens on the 2nd Saturday of May. 256 organizations from 60 different countries support this.

This looks like a very interesting play. I can't wait to go see it!

To me the most interesting character seems like Edgar. I would like to see how this character is protayed in the play.

See you on Tuesday,

i went to stratford, and i think that the stage combat workshop and theother workshop were more fun than thhe actual play.

I didn't go to King Lear, so I'm sorry I missed the fighting workshop. However, I have a cousin in high school that's taking drama and he taught me how to do the slap and punch. It's a good thing to know for drama in english, and it improved a skit I did not too long ago.

I really liked seeing King Lear. Although it was a bit hard to understand, I liked it. It was my first Shakesperean play :)

My first Shakespeare was 12th Night. Course, it was a comedy instead of a tradgedy so it was a little easier to understand than King Lear. At least, that's what I think.

I enjoyed seeing King Lear and hope to see many more plays at strattford. It was an amazing experience. I'd have to say the character I found most interseting was the "fool". At the beginnig he was funny but got more normal at the end.
