Academy Award® winner Jessica Chastain returns to Broadway alongside Golden Globe® nominee Corey Stoll and Emmy® Award nominee Michael Urie in Lost Lear, a deeply moving, astonishingly imaginative new play that marks the Broadway debut of writer- director Dan Colley.

As her grip on the present slips, Joy (Chastain), a former actress, is certain she’s back in rehearsal for King Lear. At her care home, her nurse (Urie) takes his cues from her, stepping into whatever role she needs him to play. When her estranged son Conor (Stoll) comes to visit, he’s ready to tell his mother what he’s spent years leaving unsaid. But if he wants her to hear him, he’ll have to step into the scene.
