Event

King Lear

Saturday, November 4 - 8 p.m.

The Pigeon Creek Shakespeare Company will visit The Sauk for the first time with its fall production of William Shakespeare's King Lear. King Lear follows the story of a mythical king of Britain who tests the love of his three daughters. After banishing the youngest daughter, he divides his lands between the elder two, but soon discovers that they are driven by greed and jealousy. The Pigeon Creek Shakespeare Company is Michigan's only year-round, touring, professional Shakespeare company. Frequently nominated for awards for Shakespearean performance, the company uses staging practices from Shakespeare's own time to bring his plays to life in a lively, audience-interactive, and accessible performance atmosphere.

All tickets are $10. Tickets are available online at www.thesauk.org. Tickets will also be available at the door starting two hours prior to the performance.

This production is sponsored by B's Shop & Fly. The 2017 Sauk season is made possible by Expressions Photography & Design. The Sauk is supported by the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs, the National Endowment of the Arts and their program ArtWorks.
