The play by Tom Stoppard was directed by Evgeny Kamenkovich. "Arcadia," written in 1993, is considered one of the most outstanding works of the British playwright Tom Stoppard. The action of the play takes place in the same house but in different eras: at the beginning of the 19th century and at the end of the 20th. Two researchers of Byron's life and work conduct their studies in the same estate where the poet once stayed, and where significant events for his circle occur. The play belongs to Stoppard's mature work, where the dominant theme becomes knowledge. The playwright reflects on eternal themes (the divine, time, and space) and what only seems important to a person in their fleeting existence (the world, war, freedom, love, and so on). As for the comedic elements, they appear solely to relieve the dramatic tension. You can find even more performances in Moscow on our website in the theater section.
