Aging and weary, King Lear resolves to settle his affairs. But time, delusions, and betrayal uncover a kingdom of dark hearts and battered minds. Driven into the storm, and accompanied by fools and madmen, Lear's worst nightmare begins to unfold. Inspired by Shakespeare's KING LEAR, Shake on the Lake's LEAR'S NIGHTMARE examines our own desires and the madness they bring forth.
