About
"I had a night in which everything was revealed to me. How can I speak again?"
After a sell-out run in 2018, Deafinitely Theatre’s extraordinary production of Sarah Kane’s masterpiece is available online.
The early hours of the morning. You’re alone, with only your thoughts. How did you get here? And how do you get out?
Award-winning director Paula Garfield brings Deafinitely Theatre’s celebrated bilingual approach to Sarah Kane’s lyrical and haunting final play about mental health, which was nominated for the 2018 Broadway World UK Award for Best Direction of a New Production of a Play and the 2018 Off West End Theatre Award for Best Set Designer (Paul Burgess).
Due to licensing agreements 4.48 Psychosis is only available directly through Deafinitely Theatre's newsletter which you can sign up for here. They will email you the link to the production when it goes live in July.
Check out the trailer below.
