Shake.Co. presents 'King Lear'

Aim

Help support the Exeter University Shakespeare Company’s production of King Lear in the Exeter Cathedral.

We are returning after a five-star tour to Stratford-Upon-Avon with ‘Hamlet', to perform 'King Lear', one of William Shakespeare’s most iconic tragedies. Hosted by the Exeter Cathedral, the show will run between the 28th January to the 1st February, a year on from our sell out production of ‘Dr Faustus’. Our adaptation of this timeless piece,  presents deceit and betrayal, exploring the power and authority within hierarchy and its resultant tragedy.

We need your support! All donations will be hugely welcome and used to help us bring Shakespeare’s tragic story to life. 

As a small thank you for donations over £10, you’ll be automatically entered into a prize draw! We are offering the chance to win gifts Bella Italia, the Recycled Candle Company and others, as well as a free ticket to the show!
