A Masterwork by a Master Playwright

Tom Stoppard is one of the greatest British playwrights of the 21st century. He is the winner of several Tony Awards, an Olivier Award, as well as an Academy Award. Stoppard specialises in writing on philosophical or political themes. Leopoldstadt is one such play that is deep and will touch your soul. Giving life to this staging is Patrick Marber, director of hits like Venus in Fur, Travesties and The Room, and Sonia Friedman Productions, responsible for popular shows like Mean Girls and The Book Of Mormon. Together, they offer this unforgettable play about the bustling quarter of Vienna that will be remembered for decades to come. With such experienced people behind the play, Leopoldstadt is undoubtedly one of the top historical dramas to grace the London stage. 

The story took Stoppard a year to finish, but it took him even longer to set it right. While the story is personal to him, he based it on a Viennese family to do justice to the plot’s originality. It premiered at Wyndham’s Theatre on 25th January 2020, and audiences did not know what to expect. However, on 25th October, it bagged the American Airlines’ award for Best New Play, with Adrian Scarborough winning Best Actor in a Supporting Role. With the show’s success, Leopoldstadt tickets are selling out fast. So, book them ASAP!
