Upstart Crows of Santa Fe presents
King Lear in tribute to Itai Rosen
Upstart Crows of Santa Fe present Shakespeare’s King Lear, a tragic tale of family and kingdom destroyed through dishonesty, greed, and wisdom found too late.
This production is a tribute to Itai Rosen whose sudden passing in 2022 came just as he was beginning his own production of the play. Lear was his Blackfriars production - an opportunity offered to graduating company members to direct a play that has great meaning for them. Itai’s friends and admirers from the Crows, the Shakespeare Gym, and International Shakespeare Center decided to produce the play in his honor, using his design notes and ideas. As he wanted, the production uses the original Folio text to honor the 400th anniversary of the printing of the first Folio in 1623.
