@trnorth.bsky.socialMatthew Dunster's adaptation of King Lear is a little quirky, says Robert Beale, but undeniably powerful. Read his review of the Royal Exchange Manchester's 50th anniversary production

@themadsonneteer.bsky.social“Blow, winds, and crack your cheeks! rage! blow!
You cataracts and hurricanoes, spout
Till you have drench’d our steeples, drown’d the cocks!
You sulphurous and thought-executing fires,
Vaunt-couriers to oak-cleaving thunderbolts,
Singe my white head!”

The 82-year-old actor gives a performance of absolute authenticity and clarity as the erratic demagogue in a uniformly impressive production
