"TOM STOPPARD'S MASTERPIECE. AN EXQUISITE REVIVAL."

Scott Brown, New York Magazine



"FEEL THE HEAT RISING. Arcadia is propelled by genuine, panting passion. A TRULY WONDERFUL, DEEPLY FELT PLAY. SEE IT."

Ben Brantley, The New York Times



Tom Stoppard's ARCADIA is now playing on Broadway for a limited engagement following a sold-out run in London. Directed by five-time Tony Award® nominee David Leveaux, ARCADIA is a masterpiece of misunderstanding and quest for knowledge resonating across centuries that John Lahr of The New Yorker calls "ONE OF THE GREAT PLAYS OF MY THEATERGOING LIFE."







"A TIME TRAVELING MASTERWORK. A RAVISHING ROMANCE.

DAVID LEVEAUX'S celebrated revival is emotionally exuberant."

Linda Winer, Newsday



"In revealing and celebrating the wanting in all of us, ARCADIA offers as thrilling and offers as thrilling and fulfilling a theatergoing experience as you'll likely have this season."

Elysa Gardner, USA Today



"ARCADIA STANDS TO LIVE FOREVER."

Marilyn Stasio, Variety

FEATURED REVIEWS FOR Arcadia

Arcadia
6 / 10

The production is not without rewards, but for a play of this complexity to land both intellectually and emotionally, it requires a seamless ensemble of actors who really listen to one another. That's too infrequently the case with this uneven cast.

When Good Enough Just Isn't Enough
5 / 10

Enough about 'Spider-Man' already—Tom Stoppard is back on Broadway! Only time will tell whether 'Arcadia' is Mr. Stoppard's masterpiece, but it isn't premature to call it one of the key English-language plays of the postwar era, and even in a staging that is less than satisfactory, it makes a rich and affecting impression. Now for the bad news: David Leveaux's revival of 'Arcadia,' which was originally mounted in London two years ago with a different cast, isn't much better than adequate. When you're talking about a high-profile revival of a great play, good enough won't cut it.

Review - Kin & Arcadia
by Ben Peltz - April 5, 2011


A Columbia literary scholar with a passion for the punctuation used in Keats' poetry starts dating a personal trainer who has moved to New York from Ireland.  Sounds like the beginning of a romantic comedy about a seemingly mismatched pair trying to get their conflicting worlds to mesh.

by Jessica Lewis - March 16, 2011


ARCADIA is set in April 1809 in a stately home in Derbyshire. Thomasina, a gifted pupil, proposes a startling theory, 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 of 1809, in their quest for an increasingly elusive truth.
