Lear in the Furnace: A Review of Quantum Theatre’s “King Lear”
by STUART SHEPPARD

Attending a Quantum Theatre production can be like traveling to one of those crazy destination weddings where they make you climb up some precipitous volcano to reach the venue, while you ponder the wedding planner’s sanity. You know the view will be fantastic, but is the journey worth it? In the case of William Shakespeare’s “King Lear,” (1605) performed at two locations within the historic Carrie Blast Furnace site (and which requires a bit of trekking between them), the answer is absolutely yes.
