Rock 'n' Roll

Tom Stoppard’s intense, intelligent drama, fueled by the energies of revolution and rock music, makes its regional debut at the Huntington Theatre Company. Carey Perloff directs. - Louise Kennedy, Globe Staff

"Tom Stoppard's stellar Broadway hit of this past season is one of his best pieces of writing ever. It's a meaty play for actors and includes unbelievable music, from the Rolling Stones to Pink Floyd to U2, sending a jolt of energy through the drama of the story that's terrifically exciting." - Peter DuBois
It's August 1968, and Russian tanks are rolling into Prague. By 1990, the tanks are rolling out, and the Stones are rolling in. A sweeping drama spanning two countries, three generations, and 22 turbulent years, at the end of which all that remains is love - and rock 'n' roll.
An extraordinary theatrical event from four-time Tony Award winner Tom Stoppard ( Arcadia and The Coast of Utopia ), fresh from hit runs on Broadway and in London. A co-production with San Francisco's American Conservatory Theatre.
"Stoppard's finest play! It had me hooked." - Ben Brantley, The New York Times
