Seating is limited for this exclusive event. Tickets are $20 and are available by calling the Wilma Box Office at (215) 546-7824 or online at www.wilmatheater.org. The Wilma Theater is located at 265 South Broad Street in Philadelphia.
The Wilma has had a long-standing relationship with Stoppard spanning over a decade and has produced eight of his plays, including Night and Day, Every Good Boy Deserves Favor, Indian Ink, and The Invention of Love.
Rock 'n' Roll – currently on Broadway following a record-breaking run in London's West End.
"In August 1968, Russian tanks are rolling in to Prague. Jan, the Czech student, lives for rock music; Max, the English professor, lives for Communism; and Esme, the flower child, is high. By 1990, the tanks are rolling out, the Stones are rolling in and idealism has hit the wall. Stoppard's sweeping and passionate play spans two countries, three generations and 22 turbulent years, at the end of which, love remains — and so does rock 'n' roll," describe press notes.
