Tom Stoppard's Arcadia merges science with human concerns and ideals, examining the universe's influence in our everyday lives and ultimate fates through relationship between past and present, order and disorder and the certainty of knowledge. Set in an English country house in the years 1809-1812 and 1989, the play examines the lives of two modern scholars and the house's current residents with the lives of those who lived there 180 years earlier.

Great listen!
The story told here is very compelling. Anna was forced into circumstances she did not choose. Her father was not there for her to support her or guide her. She never met her mother. Sometimes we don’t know what we don’t know and the life we were given is what we know. This story can help many people understand that and no matter what circumstances we experience, we are magnificent beings and when a good heart is present, that is the cleanest gift. No matter what we have done or have been forced into, we are worthy to receive. Anna at her core was a wonderful human being. She did what she had to do to survive. She was deserving of everything that came to her in the end.🥰
