I went to see the play ‘4:48 Psychosis ‘on the 7th August.
This play was written by Sarah Kane, the British playwright and played in several styles.
It has no explicit characters or stage directions.
She expressed ‘the point of view of someone with severe clinical depression’ because she suffered from depression at the time.
For me it was the first time to see a one-man stage play and I was very impressed by the powerful acting.
On the stage the actress was thinking, feeling, shouting and communicating with herself and other people who were invisible.
I could see a condensed expression of humanity. She dramatically changed the tone and speeds of her voice, used her eyes, physical actions and so on.
I suppose more than any other Art, the most effective way to represent humanity is a play by humans.
