Today may be the 400th anniversary of the first performance of King Lear, in front of King James. This afternoon BBC Radio 4 featured an excellent programme on the play, its cultural context and its performance history, which can be heard here for the next week. It features actors, directors, scholars, musicians and even a food historian.
