Arcadia begins in 1809, set in the neo-classical period. Later in the play, the action switches to the present, influenced by Romanticism. The present-day family tries to understand their family’s history, and thus the play switches back and forth between modern day action and the older Classical Period. As the modern day characters of Hannah, Chloe, Bernard, Valentine, and Gus try to understand their family and who they are, they discover that mathematics provides the road map to discover their family’s history. 

Bozeman Actors Theatre opens Arcadia on Friday evening, October 4, and continues the run on October 5 and 6, and October 11, 12, and 13, for a total of six shows, performed at Yellowstone Theological Institute (in the “Barn”) at 83 Rowland Rd, Bozeman. Tickets are available from the Bozeman Actors Theatre’s website, or at the door, as long as tickets are available.
