This extraordinary theatrical event from four-time Tony Award winner Tom Stoppard makes its South Bay debut. It's August 1968, and Russian tanks are rolling in to Prague. Jan, a Czech student, lives for rock music; Max, an English professor, lives for Communism; and Esme, the flower child, is high. By 1990, the tanks are rolling out, the Stones are rolling in and idealism has hit the wall. Stoppard's sweeping and passionate play spans two countries, three generations and 22 turbulent years, at the end of which, love remains-and so does rock 'n' roll.

Master director John Doyle, whose dazzling interpretation of Sweeney Todd electrified A.C.T. and Broadway audiences, returns with a bold new interpretation of Brecht’s moving tale of love and power. In the land of Caucasus, a servant girl saves the life of an abandoned baby boy. But when the wealthy mother returns to claim him, their fates lie in the hands of a wily, unpredictable judge whose concern for the poor is rivaled only by his concern for saving his own hide. Featuring Doyle’s signature theatricality and an original score, The Caucasian Chalk Circle soars with humor, romance, unexpected plot twists, and high-stakes intensity.
