Arcadia by Tom Stoppard, directed by Hilary Woods, starts at 6.30pm, finishes at 9.40pm.

Tom Stoppard's multi-award winning Arcadia is a mix of comedy and scientific discussion, moving through the past and the present, order and chaos. Arcadia illuminates dense mathematical subjects, physics, and history through the portrayal of its characters' lives who are living a century apart in a country house - a young woman and her tutor, and a historian following the trail of a hermit. This mixture of knowledge, curiosity and discovery reveal hidden truths about the nature of love and loss.
