Review: INDIAN INK, Hampstead Theatre
by Clementine Scott - Dec 17, 2025
Indian Ink is not among Tom Stoppard’s greatest plays. The tale of a literary darling moving to 1930s India is awkwardly structured and hamfisted in its messages about Indian identity. Yet this revival breathes new life into the lesser-known work.

However, there are compensations…
