David Leveaux directs the first major London revival of Tom Stoppard’s 1993 modern classic Arcadia, which examines the relationship between past and present, between order and disorder and the certainty of knowledge.
In April 1809 at a stately home in Derbyshire, precocious young pupil Thomasina proposes a startling theory, one 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 in their quest for an increasingly elusive truth.
The cast includes the author’s son, Ed Stoppard, together with Samantha Bond, Neil Pearson, Nancy Carroll, Jessie Cave and Dan Stevens.
