theater recommendation

I heartily recommend that Boston-area people go to see Tom Stoppard's Arcadia at the Boston Publick Theatre. The website doesn't give a good impression (slightly blurry photos, inaccurate captions), but the show is wonderful. Strong performances in an excellent play. I'd forgotten how sad it was...it's easy to play up the silliness and absurdity, but the sadness is much tougher. I had a great time.

I also recommend picnicking in the park next door before the show.
