2012 Apr 3

Joseph Dodd, of Wylie, Texas, played the role of Jellaby and was the composer in a recent production of Tom Stoppard's "Arcadia" at the University of Dallas Margaret Jonsson Theater from March 22-April 1. Winner of the 1995 New York Drama Critics' Circle Award for Best Play and the 1994 Olivier Award, the play is an examination of the relationship between past and present and between order and disorder and the certainty of knowledge. It has been cited by many as the finest play from one of the most significant contemporary playwrights in the English language.
