Title: Sarah Kane 10 years on
Post by: sallyp on February 20, 2009, 03:23:56 PM

Hello there,

I was wondering whether anyone knows where Sarah Kane is buried and whether it's possible to visit her place her rest?

Thanks and all the best to everyone on this sad anniversary,
Sally P (UK)

Hi,

I think it is best to choose your own spot such as the Royal Court, I don't think anything else is really called for. Better yet just put on the the song Fake Plastic Trees by Radiohead, I remember it was played at the funeral. She also liked the music by a band called cake.

Hello, Sally,

Sarah was cremated so she has no grave. I went to lay flowers outside the Royal Court today, as I do every 20 February, as there is a plaque to her memory on one of the seats, her only memorial to the best of my knowledge.

Sending you my best wishes,
With love, Jess

These are the flowers by Jess outside the Royal Court, two years after Sarah's death

Jess if you have pictures of flowers now I'll add them to the site.
