As you'll see, this "King Lear" takes place in a vague region of the Balkans—a place dominated by strongmen and ethnic cleansing. Whether Lear is Tito or Ceausescu hardly matters. We are in a time in the last century when things are falling apart. As usual, Shakespeare has seen around the corner, into the future.
