Kunene and the King

Kunene and the King

FEB 16 – MAR 16
Klein Theatre

By John Kani
Directed by Ruben Santiago-Hudson
Produced in association with Octopus Theatricals

It’s a quarter century since the first post-apartheid democratic elections, and Jack Morris has just been given a career-defining role as King Lear—and a life-changing diagnosis. As the celebrated classical actor faces his own mortality, he clashes and connects with his at-home caregiver, Lunga Kunene (Kani), in this “poignant two-hander” (The Guardian).
