Title: CHRIS PENNOCK IN KING LEAR
Post by: joe integlia on July 31, 2007, 04:03:10 AM
Members of the local SHADOWS IN THE SUN GROUP and I attended the Lee Strasberg Theatre production of "King Lear" this past weekend. Chris Pennock played the part of the EARL OF GLOUCESTER. There is a funny misprint in the program. Under Chris' bio it states that he has been acting for over 400 years! LOL. I sent some pics to midnite and i hope she will post them here soon.

;) Nice pics!
Maybe Chris has been acting for 400 years. With what the I Ching can do, you never know!

So how was the play itself?
Recalling the oddball version of "Hamlet" CP was in a couple of years ago, which closed in a week, IIRC... I hope this was a better experience for all !
Was this show genuinely enjoyable? Moving (since this is a tragedy, after all)? Coherent? Well-received? How was CP's performance (he looks pretty serious in those pix)?

i am probably the wrong person to ask for a review. i didnt understand any of it. the first two acts went on for a solid 2 hours before an intermission. i couldnt possibly sit through the rest and left. the rest of the group stayed for the entire performance. i know "victoria(laura)winters" posts here and maybe she will add her comments.
