King Lear, Act 5

In this final recording about King Lear, I chat with Maile and Reagan about Act 5. We ask ourselves if this play is too sad, if ripeness is all, if the gods are just, what Lear has learned about life and love, what true repentance looks like, whether or not Cordelia is dead, what exactly Lear dies of at the end, and much more. At the end of this recording I offer a few concluding words about the play, and ask one final question about it, maybe the most important and provocative question of all.
