Simon Stephens: 'The Royal Court production of 4:48 Psychosis shattered me'

New writing powerhouse the Royal Court turns 60 this year. To celebrate, actors, directors and writers will share their memories and experiences of the theatre.

As a treat, we have a series of exclusive videos for WhatsOnStage readers which we will share over the coming few weeks. Here playwright Simon Stephens shares his feelings about the new writing venue and how it is a building that defines how we live today.
