Workshop Theatre present Sarah Kane’s ‘4.48 Psychosis’, directed by Alice Rafter and produced by Catherine De Mello.
“It’s not your fault, that’s all I ever hear, it’s not your fault, it’s an illness, it’s not your fault, I know it’s not my fault. You’ve told me that so often I’m beginning to think it is my fault”
‘4.48 Psychosis’ is a powerful and emotive play which explores a variety of issues, focusing on the subject of clinical depression and the NHS’s treatment of it. It is Kane’s final work, and does not contain any specific characters or plot.
We aim to create a piece which explores the workings of the human mind and the way in which a mental illness such as depression changes the way we perceive our world, and the way others perceive us.
Due to the style of the writing, the rehearsal process will be quite experimental and collaborative.
We are looking for a mixed cast of 9, ideally 3 male, 6 female. However, given the nature of the play this may change depending on what we see in auditions.
If you want to be a part of a challenging and unique production, do not hesitate to audition.
Auditions will be held in Studio 1 of the Workshop Theatre (opposite Marjorie and Arnold Ziff Building, church with red door) on the following dates:
Wednesday 2nd October, 2pm
Thursday 3rd October, 5pm
Callbacks will be held on Saturday 5th from midday.
We understand that a lot of TG auditions are taking place at the same time, so if you have a clash please let us know and we will try to fit you in.
*Performance dates 4th 5th 6th November, please make sure you are free on these dates*
If you have any questions, please email Alice Rafter (Director) alice.rafter@btinternet.com or Catherine De Mello (Producer) catherinedemello@hotmail.co.uk
Hope to see you there!
