The critically acclaimed Chichester Festival Theatre production of the Shakespearian classic King Lear completed its West End transfer last night, opening at the Duke Of York's Theatre with Sir Ian McKellen in the titular role once again.
The Telegraph said that 'McKellen is spellbinding from the very start' and The Guardian concluded their four-star review with 'this production still dazzles, McKellen shimmering brightest at its dark, tormented heart'.
