About the Show

Patrick Page stars in this new production of Shakespeare's classic tragedy.

Stuck in a merry-go-round of memory, the head of a dysfunctional royal family wrestles with power-hungry children and the threat of losing the empire he built. Real and imagined worlds collide, forming a political and personal horror that threatens to engulf the mind of the monarch. Patrick Page ("Hadestown", "The Gilded Age") plays the title role.
