"Everything passes/Everything perishes/Everything palls" - 4.48
Psychosis How on earth do you award aesthetic points to a 75-minute
suicide note? The question comes from a review of 4.48 Psychosis'
inaugural production, the year after Sarah Kane took her own life,
but this book explores the ways in which it misses the point.
Kane's final play is much more than a bizarre farewell to
mortality. It's a work best understood by approaching it first and
foremost as theatre - as a singular component in a theatrical
assemblage of bodies, voices, light and energy. The play finds an
unexpectedly close fit in the established traditions of modern
drama and the practices of postdramatic theatre. Glenn D'Cruz
explores this theatrical angle through a number of exemplary
professional and student productions with a focus on the staging of
the play by the Belarus Free Theatre (2005) and Melbourne's Red
Stitch Theatre (2007).
