Don’t miss The Old Vic’s ‘must-see’ (The Telegraph) production of ARCADIA by Sir Tom Stoppard as it transfers to the West End at the Duke of York’s Theatre this summer following its critically acclaimed run.
Brilliant minds. Burning hearts. The irresistible pull between chaos and order.
Brought vividly to life by acclaimed director Carrie Cracknell, this elegant, witty and deeply moving new production of ARCADIA is ‘a fitting tribute to Tom Stoppard’s genius’ (The Standard).
A dazzling collision of science and romance, ARCADIA explores the beauty of curiosity, the ache of lost knowledge and the timeless thrill of discovery.
‘Stoppard’s Masterpiece makes a dazzling return to the stage’ (The Telegraph), opening at the Duke of York’s Theatre, which is being newly renovated into the round especially for this production, from 20 June, for a strictly limited 12-week run.

What is Arcadia about?
In a country house, two centuries apart, genius, passion and discipline unfold. In 1809, teenage prodigy, Thomasina Coverly races ahead of her time – exploring mathematics, nature and the unpredictable forces that govern both the universe and the human heart. In the present day, author Hannah Jarvis investigates a mysterious chapter in the life of Lord Byron with precision, patience and rigor, determined to resist the pull of romanticised myth. As past and present intwine, their questions begin to echo across time: can we ever truly understand the patterns of life or are we forever poised on the edge of disorder?
