Derek Jacobi Crowned As King Lear
I’ve liked Derek Jacobi ever since he played the title role in “I, Claudius,” and my liking has not abated lo these many years. Jacobi currently plays the snobby Archbishop of Canterbury in “The King’s Speech,” and is getting raves for playing the top part in “King Lear,” which has just opened in London and is coming to New York in the spring.
