the coast of utopia

my biggest regret about leaving new york for the month of january through may of this past year is the fact that it forced me to miss the massive production of tom stoppard's trilogy the coast of utopia at lincoln center.



the play focuses on the philosophical debates in pre-revolutionary Russia during the mid 19th century. the play was directed by jack o'brien, who won a tony last night for his work on the production, and featured an amazing cast of actors, uncluding brian o'byrne, jennifer ehle (who won a tony last night), billy crudup (who also won a tony last night), ethan hawke, and martha plimpton. images of the production, like the one below, look incredible.
