Description
Tom Stoppard's play explores the blurred lines between reality and fiction. A successful playwright, Henry is married to Charlotte, who stars in his latest work about adultery. Her co-star, Max, is married to another actress, Annie, with whom he has a secret affair. But is their love any more real than the characters in Henry's play? As the boundaries between truth and performance begin to dissolve, Henry's marriage and relationships are put to the test. Stoppard's witty and insightful script raises questions about the nature of love, art, and identity. This thought-provoking play premiered at London's Strand Theatre in 1982 and was revived in 1999, starring Roger Rees and Felicity Kendal.
