National Theatre Live: Leopoldstadt (2022)
Tom Stoppard’s *Leopoldstadt* is a masterwork of intimate epic theatre, tracing one Jewish family’s journey through Vienna’s glittering twilight and into its darkest hour. With a company of 40 actors spanning generations, the play transforms history into a deeply personal, aching portrait of identity, assimilation, and loss. It’s not a history lesson—it’s a family reunion where every laugh and quarrel is shadowed by what’s to come. This production will resonate powerfully with anyone moved by stories of resilience, the fragile nature of belonging, and the quiet, devastating weight of memory.
