by Tom Stoppard
Awards & Recognition
Winner! 2007 Tony Award for Best Play
Synopsis
This epic trilogy of sequential but self-contained plays vividly portrays a group of Russian intellectuals as they evolve from philosophers into revolutionaries against the backdrop of Tsarist Russia and European upheaval.
In Salvage, the year is 1852 and Herzen, retreating from public and private calamities, has arrived in London.
Emigree circles are buzzing with intrigue and Herzen's money as well as his sardonic wit soon have an outlet among them.

"Nothing of such intellectual ambition, such daring or epic scope has marked the National Theatre's history as this brainstorming trilogy."
