King Lear, aging and weary, divides his kingdom among his daughters, rewarding their flattery. When honest Cordelia refuses empty flattery, he banishes her and leans on Goneril and Regan, who scheme to strip him of power. Meanwhile, Gloucester, misled, favours his son Edmund over his true son Edgar. Both fathers descend into madness and tragedy.
