Play review - "Arcadia" by Tom Stoppard

Probably my favourite Tom Stoppard. I saw it on stage in Qld in around 1996 and didn't really get into it at first but it has stayed with me, especially the ending, and I have re-read it several times. It has all the smart stuff you expect from Stoppard but also has a terrific emotional impact. That ending is so sad, so wonderful.
