This brings my heart joy. I love Arcadia and had the honor of bringing Thomasina to life @masongross.bsky.social Stoppard is a delight for an actor to play, and this story weaves how important science and art and and an open heart are to making changes. And I’m thankful to all the lives touched.

An astonishing letter published in the Times of London.

Headline: SAVED BY STOPPARD
Sir, In 1993 my wife and I went to see the first production of Arcadia by Tom Stoppard (obituary, Dec 1), and in the interval I experienced a Damascene conversion. As a clinical scientist I was trying to understand the enigma of the behaviour of breast cancer, the assumption being that it grew in a linear trajectory spitting off metastases on its way. In the first act of Arcadia, Thomasina asks her tutor, Septimus: “If there is an equation for a curve like a bell, there must be an equation for one like a bluebell, and if a bluebell, why not a rose?” With that Stoppard explains chaos theory, which better explains the behaviour of breast cancer. At the point of diagnosis, the cancer must have already scattered cancer cells into the circulation that nest latent in distant organs. The consequence of that hypothesis was the birth of “adjuvant systemic chemotherapy”, and rapidly we saw a striking fall of the curve that illustrated patients’ survival.

Stoppard never learnt how many lives he saved by writing Arcadia.

Finished “Voice Over - Voice Actor” by the talented @yurilowenthal.bsky.social & @taraplatt.bsky.social. This was such a good read not only for those starting, but even for those along the journey who need a refresher to pick up a new trick! I will definitely revisit this book throughout my life!
