4.48 Psychosis was written throughout the autumn and winter of
1998-99 as Kane battled with one of her recurrent bouts of
depression. On February 20, 1999, aged 28, the playwright committed
suicide. On the page, the piece looks like a poem. No characters
are named, and even their number is unspecified. It could be a
journey through one person's mind, or an interview between a doctor
and his patient.
A gripping psycholgical thriller, DEAD RECKONING sees a renowned
artist finding himself caught up in a maze of chilling mind games
and deceit. When the mysterious Mr Todd arrives at painter Tony
Reed's house, Tony is forced to face the past that still haunts him
and make a decision that he has only ever fantasised about. This
decision leads Reed and his second wife Megan into a terrifying
nightmare from which there seems no escape. Who exactly is Mr Todd?
Just how far is Tony Reed prepared to go? And who really did kill
his adored first wife . . . ?Cast 3 male 1 female; Length Full; Set
Interior; Licence World in English
The creative team responsible for a recent Broadway flop (in which three chorus girls were murdered by the mysterious ‘Stage Door Slasher’) assemble for a backer’s audition at an isolated country mansion. The house is replete with sliding wall panels, secret passageways, nazi spies, a bumbling police inspector and a German maid who is apparently four different people - all of which figure in the intrigue and comic mayhem which follows when the ‘Slasher’ reappears, striking again - and again, and again. While the composer, lyricist, actors and director prepare their performance and a blizzard rages outside cutting off any possible retreat, bodies start dropping in plain sight and suspicion mounts with the demise of each new victim until the ‘Slasher’ is finally unmasked - much to the relief of the audience, who will need a rest following the non-stop barrage of laughter.
