KING LEAR, AUCKLAND THEATRE COMPANY

https://www.atc.co.nz/auckland-theatre-company/2023/king-lear/

“Hester Ullyart as the Fool, is electric. She riffs of Hurst’s sucker of a Lear, playing the Fool as a soulful, yearning floozy – but with bite to match her bark. “ STUFF NZ

FULL REVIEW HERE

“Hester Ullyart maintains a perfect gatekeeper of otherworldly wisdom and floozie turned cabaret singer, as his admonishing sage. Also, her singing is just great..”

Theatreview NZ, 2023

‘‘King Lear’s Fool is reimagined in sequins and sunglasses, a floozy for the ages in a performance from Hester Ullyart that should not be missed by any fan of Shakespeare.’’

NZ Herald, 2023
