4.48 PSYCHOSIS PLAY COMING TO WOLFVILLE PARK

“4.48 Psychosis, by influentia­l British playwright Sarah Kane, takes a deep dive into issues of mental health and suicide,” says a news release from the theatre company.

“Lyrical yet raw, grim yet humorous, the play beautifull­y expresses ugly truths: isolation, stigma, and the longing for self-esteem and community understand­ing.”
