Description

This fifth collection of Tom Stoppard's plays brings together five classic plays by one of the most celebrated dramatists writing in the English language.Arcadia 'I have never left a new play more convinced that I'd just witnessed a masterpiece.'

Financial TimesHapgood 'Hapgood is a new variation on one of Stoppard's abiding themes: the black romance of reality and appearance. This is a metaphysical spy-thriller, intricate, elegant and lucid.for sheer intellectual excitement, Hapgood has no rival.' Sunday Times
