You must have seen the original London production, not the shorter version the play became when it returned when the London theaters reopened. I’m sorry we won’t see the original in NY and hope it won’t be difficult to follow the complex story after all the cuts. I wonder if Stoppard will address this when he speaks at the 92nd St Y in a couple weeks.

Peg, I wrote my post above as you were posting. I, for one, did see the play pre-pandemic, not long after it opened. I'm distressed to hear there were cuts later. I do hope NY sees the original version.

Indeed, I hope someone will explicitly ask him about cuts for American audiences.

Does LEOPOLDSTADT play with an intermission? Perhaps, like FOLLIES, having an intermission would
break the tension.
