The setting is a single room in a large country house in Derbyshire; the scenes alternate between the present and the nineteenth century until they converge in the end. In a play that many regard as a masterpiece, Tom Stoppard's characters discuss questions of science, art, history, and even gardening, but most of all the nature of truth and time and the relationship between rational order and shimmering uncertainty. This script was the winner of the 1995 New York Drama Critics' Circle Award for Best Play.
