Nobody writes like Tom Stoppard (author of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead and Shakespeare in Love). Awash with outrageous word play, Stoppard’s newest play is a deliciously complicated mind game revealing British poet A.E. Houseman and his forbidden love for an Oxford classmate. Dreamlike and witty, The Invention of Love has found large and enthusiastic audiences in London and San Francisco.
