Bring the Bard home with a literary twist on parlour games - a host-your-own Shakespeare play, where friends, family, and guests are the director, actors, crew, and audience, supplying everything from stormy sound effects to rousing applause. Adapting one of Shakespeare's best-known, highly esteemed works - KING LEAR - here is a complete kit for producing and acting out of cathartic 45-minute version of the tragedy: clear directions on how to cast and direct; essential props; and ten cleverly abridged scripts. Just add willing participants (numbering four and up). It is entertainment most excellent.
