The Fool re-enacts King Lears life by acting give away his choices and proves how a lot of an abstracted and naive fool King Lear was before.The Fool creates a figure much like King Lear, to act out the foolish behaviour that Lear had behaved introductory such as giving his kingdom to his two daughters, Regan and Goneril because he had swear them. Now that the true figure of his daughters have been revealed, showing their dishonesty and wrong nature, King Lear is upset that he had held that much trust in them and the Fool is represented in there to show Lears failure as a King.

The mockery used by the Fool is to balance out the tragic honesty and brutality with comedy to ease and balance it out so that the play is not all tragedy. The audience that were the circumferent to the ramification were given direct jokes from the Fool about the protagonist, this is usually done to the closest to the stage which were usually the poor people since they would not be adequate to receive any seats higher.
