Embers Exploring themes of love, friendship and betrayal, Embers is set in war torn Europe in 1940 in a Hungarian castle, where a retired general - Henrik - awaits the arrival of Konrad, a friend he has not seen for several decades. In Embers, the fateful day was over 30 years before, when Konrad had abruptly deserted a hunting party he was on with his lifelong friend Henrik. The following day Konrad mysteriously fled Vienna leaving behind his two inseperable friends - Henrik and his beautiful wife Kriztina. The passing of so many years has not dulled Henrik's memory of that day nor answered the problems that still haunt him. The cast features Jeremy Irons as 'Henrik' along with Patrick Malahide as 'Konrad' and Jean Boht as 'Nini'. The Oscar and Tony award-winning actor Jeremy Irons makes his eagerly awaited return to the London stage after an absence of 17 years. |
