Dec 26– From "King Lear" by William Shakespeare (1606)

 I liked the other one better (shaky cam recording of a live performance is never a winner), but they seem to have cut/rearranged todays scenes.

Dec 26– From King Lear by William Shakespeare (1606)

Summary: Gloucester wants to jump off a cliff, but Edgar tricks him.

Commentary: This leads directly to the first part of King Lear in 15MAD. The year is cyclical! I enjoy Edgar changing his voice after Gloucester "falls." Also, Gloucester telling him he has no eyes (in case he didn't notice the giant bloody bandage). JEJ does have a better crazy vibe than the Lear in the other one. Fight choreography was meh, but the sword steal was cool.
