Arcadia

In Tom Stoppard’s Arcadia, it’s 1809 and the elegant Coverly estate is in an uproar over a scandal involving Thomasina, a 13-year-old prodigy in mathematics. At the same time, we watch their descendants in the present day trying to piece together that age-old scandal. The action flows back and forth between the centuries, with Stoppard’s dazzling wordplay weaving science, history, and romance into a brilliant intellectual comedy. Winner of many awards, including Best Play of the Season; by the playwright of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead.
