The Royal Shakespeare Company and the Royal Court Theatre announce a new  co-production of 4.48 Psychosis, which sees the original cast and creative team re-visit Sarah Kane’s final masterpiece 25 years on.

Following its opening at the Royal Court Theatre the production transfers to The Other Place, Stratford-upon-Avon for twenty performances only from Thursday 10 - Sunday 27 July, with local press night on Tuesday 15 July.

The final performance will take place at 4.48am on the morning of Sunday 27 July 2025. The unique event will also include a post-show discussion with the cast and creative team over breakfast.

First performed at the Royal Court Jerwood Upstairs on 23 June 2000, 4.48 Psychosis plunges the audience into the mind of an unnamed protagonist grappling with severe depression. This unflinching portrait of a psyche teetering on the edge of oblivion returns to the stage in a new production directed by James Macdonald (Waiting for Godot, West End) with original cast members Daniel Evans, Jo McInnes and Madeleine Potter reprising their critically acclaimed roles.

Joining James Macdonald on the creative team are Set & Costumer Designer Jeremy Herbert, Lighting Designer Nigel Edwards and Sound Designer Paul Arditti.
