    Remnants : An Audio Drama

    A dark fantasy thriller audio drama.

    When we die, the remnants of us return to the First and Last Place…

    Remnants is a dark fantasy thriller audio drama following the Apprentice as he learns how to read remnants under the frustrating supervision of Sir. Remnants are seemingly innocuous objects – a broken pocket watch; a steel thimble; a silk scarf – but when the Apprentice looks closely, he sees how each one holds the remnants of someone’s life story.

    Each week the Apprentice reads a new remnant, following that person’s journery beginning to end. When he’s done, he must make a judgement; shelve or discard. But he doesn’t know what the criteria is or what the consequences of such a judgement might be.

    The more remnants the Apprentice reads, the more we begin to understand the magnitude of the task he has been set. And the more both we, and the Apprentice himself, wonder why it is him who has been chosen to do it.

    With every week, a new mystery. With every new mystery, a terrible choice.

    Find out more about Remnants here.

    Remnants is a part of the Rusty Quill Network.

    Intermission: Apprentice Reads 'All the World's a Stage' Dec 01, 2025
    Show notes

    Hi! I’m Eira, the voice of Sir and the Apprentice, and also the person who writes this show, sound designs it, and puts it out into the world. There’s no new episode of the show this week because I’ve been unwell and haven’t been able to finish it, so instead, you’ll be hearing this intermission, which features the Apprentice reading a Shakespeare monologue. I hope you enjoy it.


    All the world’s a stage,

    And all the men and women merely players;

    They have their exits and their entrances;

    And one man in his time plays many parts,

    His acts being seven ages. At first the infant,

    Mewling and puking in the nurse’s arms;

    And then the whining school-boy, with his satchel

    And shining morning face, creeping like snail

    Unwillingly to school. And then the lover,

    Sighing like furnace, with a woeful ballad

    Made to his mistress’ eyebrow. Then a soldier,

    Full of strange oaths, and bearded like the pard,

    Jealous in honour, sudden and quick in quarrel,

    Seeking the bubble reputation

    Even in the cannon’s mouth. And then the justice,

    In fair round belly with good capon lin’d,

    With eyes severe and beard of formal cut,

    Full of wise saws and modern instances;

    And so he plays his part. The sixth age shifts

    Into the lean and slipper’d pantaloon,

    With spectacles on nose and pouch on side;

    His youthful hose, well sav’d, a world too wide

    For his shrunk shank; and his big manly voice,

    Turning again toward childish treble, pipes

    And whistles in his sound. Last scene of all,

    That ends this strange eventful history,

    Is second childishness and mere oblivion;

    Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything.
