4.0 out of 5 stars An excellent performance, May 26, 2010
This review is from: BBC Radio Presents: King Lear by William Shakespeare (Presented by The Renaissance Theatre Company) [3 Audio Cassettes/3.5 Hrs.] (Audio Cassette)
I was fortunate in that I duplicated my copy of these audio cassettes to CD before finally wearing them out!

This is an excellent performance, and it has been the standard by which every other production of Lear has been judged, at least for me. I've lost the cast notes, so I can't tell you who the person who played the Fool was, sadly, but the exchanges between him and Gielgud are letter perfect.

As I write this, Amazon lists the performance as being out of stock with no listing on when they expect more copies in, and I've not found CD reproductions anywhere. I can only hope others can find duplicates out there, as it would be tragic for such a fine performance to have been lost.
