4.48 Psychosis

December 2-4, 9-12, 2010

Using music, text, and movement, 4.48 Psychosis explores the point of view of someone with severe clinical depression. A patient discusses her life and feelings with a new doctor while also recounting past experiences with a lover and other doctors. As her past and present begin to overlap, she realizes her only moments of clarity are at 4:48 in the morning. Will the patient be able to overcome her depression, or is she doomed?
