Alice Birch’s ‘Anatomy of a Suicide’

Performed by final-year Royal Conservatoire of Scotland BA Acting students, Anatomy of a Suicide questions what we inherit, what we pass on, and how to make sense of our lives in the days in-between.

Alice Birch’s ‘Anatomy of a Suicide’

About Alice Birch’s ‘Anatomy of a Suicide’

Directed by Stef O’Driscoll

“My mother always said to Live Big. Live as much as I could.”

Three generations of women. Three stories played out in unison. One powerful, unflinching look at a family afflicted with severe depression and mental illness.

For each, the chaos of what has come before brings with it a painful legacy, which will reverberate through time and leave a lasting impact for generations to come.

Performed by final-year BA Acting students, Anatomy of a Suicide questions what we inherit, what we pass on, and how to make sense of our lives in the days in-between.

“Arresting and highly original” The Guardian
