King Leir
''King Leir'' is an anonymous Elizabethan play about the life of the ancient Brythonic king Leir of Britain. It was published in 1605 but was entered into the Stationers' Register on 15 May 1594.〔Donald M Miche, ed., 'A Critical Edition of The True Chronicle History of King Leir and His Three Daughters, Gonorill, Ragan, and Cordella', New York, NY, Garland Publishing, 1991; p. 4.〕 The play has attracted critical attention principally for its relationship with ''King Lear'', Shakespeare's version of the same story.〔Logan and Smith, pp. 222-4.〕
==Performance==
The records of theatre impresario Philip Henslowe show that ''King Leir'' was performed on 6 and 8 April 1594 at the Rose Theatre, by a cast that combined personnel from two acting companies, Queen Elizabeth's Men and Sussex's Men. Other records claim that the play was often acted, though these two are the only specific performances known. It has been suggested that Shakespeare, who was a player in the Queen's company of the 1590s, may have actually performed in King Leir.〔Tiffany Stern, ed., King Leir, Globe Quartos, London, 2002; p. ix.〕
