The Theatre Lab Presents: ‘Arcadia’
About The Event
The Theatre Labâs Creating a Role class of 2023 presents Arcadia. Considered one of Tom Stoppardâs masterpieces and a landmark play of the late 20th century, Arcadia alternates between two time periods, the early 19th century and the present day, at an aristocratic estate in Derbyshire, England. The estate was once home to a brilliant young mathematician named Thomasina Coverly, who is tutored by her enigmatic tutor, Septimus Hodge. Meanwhile, in the present day, a group of scholars are trying to piece together the history of the estate and the lives of its inhabitants. As the play progresses, the charactersâ lives and stories from both time periods become intertwined, leading to a fascinating plot that explores the influences of social change.
