... and can go see Psychosis 4.48 performed by Factory 449 ...
Don't.
It's terrible. I was reminded of Dorothy Parker saying of Katherine Hepburn, "she runs the gamut of emotions from A to B".
If the essential question of the play was "how does suicide arise from depression" then the director's answer seems to be delivered by asking the actors to "play crazy to the hilt!" Yeah, crazy! That's the ticket. It strikes me as odd that out of 10 actors and a director none seemed to have any experience with sadness or considering suicide. Did they all miss high school?
Anyway, don't go see it. I've already invested more emotion in this review than I felt throughout the whole play.
