Leopoldstadt, Tom Stoppard's Olivier Award-winning new play, directed by Patrick Marber is screening via National Theatre HOME.
★★★★★
Tom Stoppard’s masterpiece. Magnificent.
The Independent
At the beginning of the 20th century, Leopoldstadt was the old, crowded Jewish quarter of Vienna, Austria. But Hermann Merz, a factory owner and baptised Jew now married to Catholic Gretl, has moved up in the world.
We follow his family’s story across half a century, passing through the convulsions of war, revolution, impoverishment, annexation by Nazi Germany and the Holocaust. A company of 40 actors represent each generation of the family in this epic, but intimate play.
★★★★
