VUU Theatre’s 4.48 Psychosis

Free and open to the public. The final play by British playwright Sarah Kane, first staged nearly one and a half years after her death on February 20, 1999. The play is an intense, poetic exploration of one person’s struggle with severe depression and suicidal thoughts. It delves into themes of mental illness, isolation, and the search for connection, offering an unflinching and deeply emotional look into the mind of someone experiencing profound psychological pain. Doors open at 7 p.m. and the presentation begins at 7:30 p.m. Please RSVP using this form.

Content Warning: This show contains language and themes of death, grief, drug use, sex, mental health, and suicide. Due to these themes and situations, this show is not recommended for audiences under 16.
