WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Nominated for 2 Tony Awards including Best Revival of a Play!
From London's West End comes the critically-acclaimed production of Tom Stoppard's Arcadia, directed by five-time Tony Award nominee David Leveaux (The Real Thing, Cyrano de Bergerac, Jumpers). The cast includes Billy Crudup, Raul Esparza and Margaret Colin.
April 1809, a stately home in Derbyshire, England... Thomasina, a gifted pupil, proposes a startling theory, beyond her comprehension. All around her, the adults, including her tutor Septimus, are preoccupied with secret desires, illicit passions and professional rivalries. Two hundred years later, academic adversaries Hannah and Bernard are piecing together puzzling clues, curiously recalling those events of 1809, in their quest for an increasingly elusive truth. Arcadia is a thing of beauty - a dazzling, witty work of misunderstanding and quest for knowledge, resonating across centuries.

A strong argument can be made that Arcadia is Tom Stoppard's best play, and that perception will only be reinforced by David Leveaux's revival at the Ethel Barrymore Theatre, which is as close to perfection as the most discriminating viewer might want.
Since its 1993 debut at London's National Theatre, the prevailing word on Arcadia is that it's dense going. That's true enough, considering the cornucopia of ideas Stoppard spills over the stage -- involving unproved mathematical theorems, thermodynamics, the evolution of English gardens from tamed to unruly, the interpretation of history, and references to Ovid, Shakespeare, and Lord Byron -- but the play has many characteristics of[...]
