4.48 Psychosis was performed by The Chicken's Still
Dancing at Greyfriars Kirk House between 24-30 Aug 2004.
"The Chicken's Still Dancing Theatre Company divide Kane's text
into four voices to physicalise the distorted relationship
between body and mind. Three seemingly distinct people face an
impassive doctor figure, whose clinical truths explain nothing.
In the struggle to become one, the ultimate solution becomes
ever more clear. Kane's characteristic dark humour combined with
a biting clarity serves only to make this play more poignant."
The Chicken's Still Dancing Theatre Company are a group of
students from the University of Manchester, a number of whom
have experienced mental health problems and who are committed to
their greater understanding.

Hipólito vive fechado no quarto, vê
televisão e deleita-se com os seus brinquedos caros. Está doente. Os
outros não existem. É com o suicídio de Fedra que o príncipe percebe que
não tem lugar no mundo: "Se tivesse havido mais momentos como este." O
Amor de Fedra é uma recriação moderna e convulsiva do mito: e uma
estranha peça de câmara…
Fedra És difícil. Temperamental, cínico, amargo, gordo, decadente,
mimado. Passas o dia na cama, vês televisão à noite, arrastas-te pela
casa com o sono nos olhos e não tens um pensamento para ninguém. Sofres.
Eu adoro-te.
Hipóloto Não é muito lógico.
Fedra O amor não é lógico.
Sarah Kane, O Amor de Fedra
