Stage seats are awesome because this is played in the round.

Great revival of a brilliant play showing Stoppard at his best .Funny, clever, intriguing and thought provoking .Poking a little fun at academia and enabling us to witness the layers in time between 1810 and present day. To ponder the infinite and to wonder about genius and originality. Excellent cast all playing their parts so well. I saw the original NT production with Bill Nighy Felicity Kendall Rufus Sewell et al and it certainly stands up to the comparison. David L

I wish I had read the plot before the start of the play. I found the first 20-30 minutes hard going. I thought the actors were excellent but the story could have been told in half the time as far as I could see. I guess this just wasn’t my cup of tea.

Such an intelligent thought-provoking play, with the level of acting and articulation that Stoppard needs, and a very unobtrusive but powerful staging.

Wonderful cast and performance! Also a great venue. Had the "on stage seats" and it was a perfect experience.

It's a brilliant play and worth going to.. I have seen versions of it before and this was not the best version but the cast is admirable. Money well spent.

A terrific production of a witty intriguing but demanding play, The programme has a double page spread of explanation of the concepts involved in the play such a 'chaos theory' It did make me laugh a lot but at 2 hours and 50 mins running time plus an interval it did seem a tad overlong for for performers and audience alike by the end. Glad I have seen it in such a good production but would not see it a second time.

Have always relished Stoppard's Arcadia since its first production at the National Theatre in 1993. See no reason why it should have been revived in the round, since the staging interferes with sightlines and audience members seated on the stage can be distracting. Otherwise excellent production by very good actors. Beware not to sit in the stalls below the raised stage, since the tableful of props is impossible to see (including the tortoise).

We enjoyed this production very much. The theatre was pretty comfortable as these theatres go. The play was brilliant but a bit lengthy towards the end
