Jennifer interviewed for Newstalk ZB on “King Lear”
- Theatre
Kiwi acting veterans Michael Hurst and Jennifer Ward-Lealand return to the stage to celebrate Auckland Theatre Company’s 30th anniversary.
The pair are set to star alongside an elite cast in Shakespeare’s King Lear- working together again after 18 years.
Michael Hurst and Jennifer Ward-Lealand still look back on their last project together, The Goat, as one of the ‘best performances they’ve ever been in’ and know each other’s ‘shorthand’ in rehersals.
“We’re at the mid-point of the rehearsals now, so what’s coming will be the digging in a little bit. I think we’ll get a little more gritty.”
