This is King Lear as never seen before:through the lens of one of Ireland’s most respectedcontemporary theatre companies.Using a cacophony of references, Pan Pan presents a reimaginingof Shakespeare’s famous play of consequenceand madness. Starring Andrew Bennett and Judith Roddy,father and daughter are trapped in an effort to expresssomething true – nothing will come of nothing, after all.Following the phenomenal success of the rehearsal,playing the Dane (winner of Best Production and Best SetDesign at the 2010 Irish Times Irish Theatre Awards), PanPan turns its attention to another Shakespeare play, onceagain reinvigorating a familiar text and offering an originaltestament to the endless possibilities of theatre and theineradicable presence of Shakespeare in our lives.everYone isking lear inhis oWn home23
