"Sir Derek Jacobi's performance of King Lear at the Donmar Warehouse theatre. Jacobi is widely acclaimed as probably the greatest living Shakespearean actor, and yet he has never performed the Bard's greatest tragic hero, King Lear. The production opened to universal acclaim, with reviews describing Jacobi's performance as the greatest Lear of this generation. Tickets to the live performance are like gold dust, but do not despair. On 3 February the National Theatre is arranging to broadcast a live performance in hundreds of cinemas around the world. For London venues check out their website."- Cornelius
