ARCADIA
By Tom Stoppard
Directed by Arthur Young
28 Jul - 13 Aug 2022

In 1809, Thomasina Coverly, the daughter of the house, is a precocious teenager with ideas about mathematics, nature and physics well ahead of her time. She studies with her tutor Septimus Hodge, a friend of Lord Byron (an unseen guest in the house). In the present, writer Hannah Jarvis and literature professor Bernard Nightingale converge on the house: she is investigating a hermit who once lived on the grounds; he is researching a mysterious chapter in the life of Byron. As their studies unfold – with the help of Valentine Coverly, a post-graduate student in mathematical biology – the truth about what happened in Thomasina's time is gradually revealed.

Thanks to Auckland Council's Creative Communities Scheme, Dolphin Theatre bring one of Tom Stoppard's most beloved plays to the stage this winter.
