Once Off Productions Presents

4.48 Psychosis

Written by Sarah Kane
Directed by Tom Creed
Performed by Marty Rea

Catch this extraordinary new production ahead of its Dublin Theatre Festival premiere

Acclaimed theatre artists Tom Creed (The Plough and the Stars, The Abbey) and Marty Rea (Macbeth, Druid) collaborate on a spare and visceral new staging of Sarah Kane’s unique, extraordinary last play.

Radical, intimate and darkly funny, 4.48 Psychosis remains “a work of extraordinary beauty” (The New York Times) — confronting despair, lucidity, survival and death with devastating clarity.

Director Tom Creed and performer Marty Rea bring extraordinary precision and emotional intensity to one of the most influential plays of the last thirty years, in a rare opportunity for Irish audiences to encounter the work of one of the most challenging and controversial playwrights of the 20th century.
