Caleb Obediah stars alongside Kenneth Branagh in a brand new West End production of Shakespeare's King Lear.
The production will begin previews tonight, Saturday 21st October at London's Wyndham’s Theatre, ahead of officially opening at a press night on Tuesday 31st October. The 50-performance run will end on Saturday 9th December. It is then scheduled to transfer to The Shed’s Griffin Theatre, off Broadway in New York City for the autumn of 2024.
As well as playing the title role, Branagh also directs the play, which is produced in association with RADA. The rest of the cast is made up entirely of RADA graduates. Caleb will play Albany, the compassionate and highly moral husband of Lear's eldest daughter, the murderous Goneril.
RADA Principal principal, Niamh Dowling, commented: “King Lear is an exceptional opportunity for RADA graduates, many of whom graduated very recently, to take part in a production of one of Shakespeare’s most impactful plays. We are really thrilled for this cast, which includes a number of graduates making their West End debuts.”
