The Invention of Love

Tom Stoppard’s masterpiece of love, lost and remembered, follows poet and scholar A.E. Housman on his final journey across the River Styx. As the 19th century explodes into the 20th, with Oscar Wilde redefining possibilities in art and sexuality, Housman keeps his love for his best friend hidden. But on this final night of Housman’s life, will he finally give in to the love that dares not speak its name?
