Tom Stoppard’s Arcadia intertwines two centuries, as 1809 and the present unfold in the same English estate. In 1809, young Lady Thomasina explores a groundbreaking mathematical theory while her tutor, Septimus Hodge, navigates the scandals and affairs of a chaotic household. Meanwhile, in the present, scholars seek to unravel these past mysteries and uncover the truth about Lord Byron’s rumored involvement.

As time shifts between eras, Arcadia delves into the tension between reason and emotion, the pursuit of knowledge, and the inevitable distractions of desire that disrupt lives across generations.
