Arcadia: A.C.T.'s New Production of Stoppard's Masterwork

Full Price:
$25.00 - $90.00
Our Price:
$12.50 - $54.00

The praise for Sir Tom Stoppard's masterpiece Arcadia could not be more effusive. A reviewer from The Daily Telegraph gushed, "I have never left a play more convinced that I had just witnessed a masterpiece." Whereas The Independent wondered if it might be "the greatest play of its time." The reason for such enthusiasm might be found in Stoppard's uncanny blend of brainy discussion and down-to-earth emotion. In this play alive with ideas -- about Byron, entropy, history and heat -- the human characters are never lost or diminished, but somehow made more real by their participation in a conversation that seems to span centuries. Set in a sprawling English country house, Arcadia moves between the 19th century and the present through a series of love stories, while characters from both eras discover connections, unearth mysteries and unravel hidden truths. Artistic Director Carey Perloff helms the American Conservatory Theater's dazzling new production of this modern-day masterwork. Learn More

Any fan of Ferris Bueller's Day Off will thoroughly enjoy this musical. Great story line, singing, and acting, almost not a slow moment during the show. Highly recommend.

We were 6 seniors who are Broadway enthusiasts, who absolutely enjoyed this play. It had good voices and choreography, Gershwin music, and a marvelous cast. It was a really good time. We walked out with smiles on our faces and felt that it was worth it to brave the very cold temperatures last night.

Great performers, witty dialogue (reparte), comical plot, and, of course, many memorable tunes. The surprise twist at the end made for a grand, funny, rewarding denouement.
