Rated 5 out of 5 stars

An absolutely fantastic production. The staging and acting was top class and the storyline was fascinating. Some deeply dense dialogue was delivered with aplomb and I was mesmerised through the entire performance. Thoroughly enjoyable

Very good onstage seats at a bargain price. The show itself, although slightly undercast, has *vastly* improved since its run at the Old Vic: recommended - but have your wits about you!

Although first shown in 1993 it’s still fresh, intelligent, witty and relevant. It’s performed in the round with the rotating stage a representation of time making the on stage seating a great theatrical bargain.

Great revival of a brilliant play showing Stoppard at his best .Funny, clever, intriguing and thought provoking .Poking a little fun at academia and enabling us to witness the layers in time between 1810 and present day. To ponder the infinite and to wonder about genius and originality. Excellent cast all playing their parts so well. I saw the original NT production with Bill Nighy Felicity Kendall Rufus Sewell et al and it certainly stands up to the comparison. David L

I wish I had read the plot before the start of the play. I found the first 20-30 minutes hard going. I thought the actors were excellent but the story could have been told in half the time as far as I could see. I guess this just wasn’t my cup of tea.

Such an intelligent thought-provoking play, with the level of acting and articulation that Stoppard needs, and a very unobtrusive but powerful staging.

Wonderful cast and performance! Also a great venue. Had the "on stage seats" and it was a perfect experience.

It's a brilliant play and worth going to.. I have seen versions of it before and this was not the best version but the cast is admirable. Money well spent.

A terrific production of a witty intriguing but demanding play, The programme has a double page spread of explanation of the concepts involved in the play such a 'chaos theory' It did make me laugh a lot but at 2 hours and 50 mins running time plus an interval it did seem a tad overlong for for performers and audience alike by the end. Glad I have seen it in such a good production but would not see it a second time.
