Arcadia

Ames Center
12600 Nicollet Ave. Burnsville

Deemed "the greatest play of its time" by London's The Independent, Tom Stoppard's Arcadia crosses the boundaries of time to present big ideas and compelling characters. Set in a sprawling English country house, this Ames Center production moves between the 19th century and the present day, allowing the audience a fascinating glimpse at the romances and scandals hidden in the manor's history. As the action unfolds in both time periods, the characters -- even as they begin to share the same stage -- weave past each other in Arcadia's intricate dance, never able to connect because they are lost in time. Enjoy this intoxicating blend of comedy and tragedy at the Ames Center's Black Box Theatre in Burnsville.
