Arcadia
Theaterstück von Tom Stoppard (Uraufführung 1993)
April 10th, 1809: In a country house in Derbyshire, the garden is uprooted, romantic poets cause chaos, and a young girl makes revolutionary scientific and mathematical discoveries. 200 years later, academics try to piece together the mystery of what happened that day.
Arcadia by Tom Stoppard, written in 1993, is exciting, funny, and nerdy, exploring the relationship between past and present, order and chaos, science and the humanities, Classicism and Romanticism, and a whole lot more! Directed by Melanie Löw and Jonas Biedermann.
Special event: after the show on Sunday 26th, there'll be a Q&A session with the production team and some actors, which is free to attend irrespective of which (if any) performance you attend.
Bar & box office open 60 minutes before show time, doors to the theatre open 30 minutes before show time – you can freely choose your seats. The performance will be in English, and have an approx. runtime of 2.5 hours including intermission.
The Gay Beggars are an independent non-professional theatre company which specialises in the production of plays written in English. Founded by students of the English Seminar in 1941, the Gay Beggars have managed to keep up the long-standing tradition of staging at least one play a year. The late Prof. Rudolf Stamm instigated their use of the marvellous Cellar Theatre, which opened in 1969. In addition to the annual performances in the Cellar Theatre, there have been many performances in other venues in Switzerland and Europe.
People with an insatiable interest in theatre and a reasonably good command of the English language are very welcome to look in and join the Gay Beggars. Though quite demanding and time-consuming, theatre work with the Gay Beggars offers you a brilliant opportunity to get involved in a rewarding activity and get to know other students.
