When the bones emerge from the ground, everyone in the city – slave descendants, archaeologists, citizens, property developers - is forced to reckon with a history sometimes remembered, sometimes forgotten.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLoosely based on the events at Prestwich Place, What Remains is a path between memory and magic, the uncanny and the known, waking and dreaming. Four figures – The Archaeologist, The Healer, The Dancer and The Student – move between bones and books, archives and madness, paintings and protest, as they struggle to reconcile the past with the now.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nadia Davids","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40302287880370,"sku":"1776142772","price":200.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0562\/9191\/8002\/products\/29247_6406a0935765a3.49048475_9781776142774.jpg?v=1678161524","url":"https:\/\/www.wordsworth.co.za\/products\/what-remains-a-play-in-one-act-paperback","provider":"Wordsworth Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
