Domini Blythe in Shakespeare for My Father, by Lynn Redgrave directed by William Carden Featuring excerpts from some of the Bard's most memorable works, Shakespeare for My Father is a moving portrait of a child's longing for the love of the daunting and charismatic Shakespearean actor who was her father. "The (excerpt) that seems most painfully relevant is King Lear," said The Guardian in its 1996 review of the play.
