Never Let Me Go

The first stage adaptation of Kazuo Ishiguro's heartbreaking, bestselling novel. Never Let Me Go is a gripping exploration of what it means to be human.

You were brought into this world for a purpose. And your futures. All of them. Have been decided.

Kathy, Ruth and Tommy were Hailsham kids. Like everyone raised at the seemingly idyllic school, they exist for a single reason. Their dreams, their desires, their love for one another: all irrelevant in a world that only values them for what they will one day give, without question or condition, to someone they have never met. And as that day grows near, Kathy looks back at her life.

Memory and reality collide in Suzanne Heathcote's gripping adaptation of Kazuo Ishiguro's bestselling novel. Never Let Me Go opened at the Rose Theatre, Kingston, in September 2024.
