Event Details LOST LEAR BY DAN COLLEY College of Charleston's Sottile Theatre, 44 George St. A moving and darkly comic remix of Shakespeare's King Lear, Lost Lear is told from the point of view of Joy, a person living with dementia who exists within an old memory of rehearsing the play. Joy's delicately maintained reality is upended by the arrival of her estranged son. Using puppetry, projection, and live video effects, the audience is drawn into Joy's world as layers of past and present, fiction and reality, overlap and distort. Lost Lear offers a thought-provoking meditation on theater and the possibility of communicating across the chasms between us. Presented in partnership with PURE Theatre. January 22-23, 2027 | 7:30pm Content Warning: this performance contains some strobe lighting effects. Suitable for ages 12+.
