What Remains is a play by Nadia Davids.
The original text
The play has been conceived as a fusion of text, dance and movement and tells a story about the unexpected uncovering of a slave burial ground in Cape Town. It is loosely based on the events at Prestwich Place in Sea Point where in 2003 construction activities uncovered human bones.
Performance history in South Africa
2017: The play made its début at the National Arts Festival, before moving to the Hiddingh Hall, Cape Town. Directed and choreographed by Jay Pather, with dancer Shaun Oelf, and a cast that included Denise Newman, Faniswa Yisa and Buhle Ngaba.
