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.\u003cbr\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":"I H Pentz Booksellers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47305239527586,"sku":null,"price":120.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0364\/4047\/3732\/files\/9781776142774.jpg?v=1780389137","url":"https:\/\/pentzbooks.co.za\/products\/what-remains-a-play-in-one-act-by-nadia-davids-edited-by-jay-panther","provider":"I H Pentz Booksellers","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
