The Westport Country Playhouse presents Nearly Lear on Sunday April 1at 4pm By Susanna Hamnett, Recommended for age 9 and up
Nearly Lear uses exuberant storytelling, music and film to retell Shakespeare’s story of King Lear as seen through the eyes of the King’s endearing goofball clown, Norris, who, in good Shakespearean tradition, is actually Noreen disguised as a boy. Mischievous, funny and tender, the production is a vaudevillian take on a classic play that will entrance both lovers of Shakespeare as well as newcomers to the Bard.

As the men prepare to head off to war, the women, led by Lysistrata, wage their own battle — of the sexes. Apparently even in Aristophanes’ day, the quickest way for women to get their point across was by turning a cold shoulder to the amorous advances of the men in their lives. The only hope for the men was to comply with the social change the women demand: if you want to make love, stop making war.
Performances March 9 at 8 p.m. on March 10 at 2 and 8 p.m. and March 11 at 3 p.m.
