Provider Sante Theatre company, University of Warwick
Academics and young performers have worked together to produce a piece of theatre that draws on the personal accounts of young people living with psychosis to raise awareness about the condition.
The play – Cracked, written by Olivier Award-winning writer Mike Kenny and funded by the Wellcome Trust – toured in locations across the country throughout September and October.
The play – performed by University of Warwick's Sante Theatre company – was based on interviews with the families and carers of three young people who had experienced an episode of psychosis.
These were carried out by Swaran Singh, a psychiatrist at the university's medical school.
