Prepare to be shaken to your core. LEAR is not just a show — it's an emotional earthquake. A blazing, incandescent creation that resurrects Shakespeare’s tragedy through dance of breathtaking intensity.
Brought to life by the Szeged Contemporary Dance Company, this world premiere transforms King Lear into a visceral, visual, and heart-rending masterpiece.A storm of bodies, light, and sound where every movement screams of love lost, and every silence becomes a plunge into the abyss.
"Who is it that can tell me who I am?"This is the story of a king undone not by war — but by the absence of love.A sudden collapse. A majestic fall into darkness.
Fusing explosive choreography, cinematic scenography, and raw emotion, LEAR sweeps you into a whirlwind of beauty and pain.A punch to the soul. A storm that shakes the heart and senses.
This is not theatre. This is not ballet.This is LEAR — as you’ve never seen it before.A choreographic event of rare power. Unmissable.
After a standing ovation and rave reviews at its Budapest premiere…LEAR is coming to Brussels for its International Debut on December 4.
Be among the first to experience it.
