The Boston Lawyers Division of the Federalist Society presents its eighth annual Shakespeare and the Law Series in which prominent public officials, judges and members of the bar will enact an abridged staged reading of Shakespeare's King Lear

The event is hosted by former Whitewater Special Prosecutor and Dean of Pepperdine Law School Kenneth Starr

Following the reading, Mr. Starr will moderate a discussion and debate on the political and legal issues raised in the play.  As Lear surrendered his sovereignty with tragic consequences, the participants will illuminate the parallels in today's political world at the state, federal and international levels.  The event lasts about two hours and is free.
