What's the story?

Night and Day is a 1978 play by Tom Stoppard set in the imaginary post-colonial country of Kambawi and explores the themes of colonisation, journalism and the media. All sprinkled throughout with Stoppard’s characteristic wordplay.
This touring production followed a successful two year run in London at the Phoenix Theatre, where the lead roles of Richard Wagner and Ruth Carson were played by John Thaw and Diana Rigg.
This was the first of two Stoppard plays at the Theatre Royal in 1980 – see below.
