Austin Shakespeare presents: Arcadia

Austin Shakespeare presents: Arcadia

Pin It

Arcadia traverses the past and the present in alternating scenes at the same English country home from 1809 to 1993 when academics, mathematicians and literary types of the present seek to uncover a mystery in the home and garden two hundred years earlier.  

Audiences will be captivated by the whirlwind stirred up by Lord Byron, who is an unseen visitor to the 19th Century characters.  The parallel lives climax in a masquerade garden party with 20th Century characters waltzing the same moment of transformation with the lovers of the early 19th Century.
