England 1974
Three prominent revolutionaries of 20th century art and politics — James Joyce, Vladimir Lenin and Tristan Tzara — come together in the mixed-up memories of a British consular official who blends history, literature and echoes of Oscar Wilde’s The Importance of Being Earnest. An intoxicating comedy of ideas, Travesties is widely considered to be Stoppard’s most ingenious masterpiece.
