The Remains of the Day

Production Company: Open Space Theatre

Venue: The Corn Hall

by Kazuo Ishiguro (adapted for the stage by Barney Norris)

Stevens, a faithful English butler, follows a life of unquestioning servitude to his aristocrat employer. But will he one day regret his failure to connect with the one woman with whom he might have had a fulfilling and loving relationship?

This beautifully structured play is based on Kazuo Ishiguro’s Booker Prize winning novel which was made into a film starring Emma Thompson and Anthony Hopkins. Spanning the period from the 1920s to the 1950s it follows Stevens on a journey of self-discovery to the West Country, where the life of his former colleague, Miss Kenton, appears to be drowning in unhappiness.
