Crave is a one-act play by British playwright Sarah Kane. It was first performed in 1998 by the theatre company Paines Plough with which Kane was writer-in-residence for the year at the Traverse Theatre Edinburgh. The play was initially presented under the pseudonym Marie Kelvedon; Kane used a pseudonym to avoid the distraction of her by then notorious reputation for graphic staged violence from her previous works. Crave was Kane’s fourth play. It is dedicated by the author to Mark Ravenhill.
