What I liked

Could you do King Lear alone, in 60 minutes? The artist has transported the story of Cordelia to medieval Korea and tells the story solo, incorporating traditional Korean costumes and swordplay. The result is a visually stunning, moving piece.

What I didn't like

The English could use a tiny bit of polishing—but this is a minor note.

My overall impression

A beautifully evocative symphony of visual impressions.
