The Lear project
A modern interpretation of Shakespeare’s King Lear. This urban take utilized live feed in the projection design, including iphones, ipads, security cameras, and various locations outside of the traditional theater play space. As the play progresses, Lear’s madness becomes more and more apparent in the projection design.
