FREUD’S LAST SESSION Runs Jan. 23-Feb. 16

ETC_Freuds Last SessionFREUD’S LAST SESSION
Presented by Ensemble Theatre Cincinnati
Jan. 23-Feb. 16
Over-the-Rhine

Local media coverage: WVXU interview | Enquirer article |

Reviews: CityBeat | Enquirer | iSpyCincy

Directed by Michael Even Haney

Cast: Barry Mulholland as Dr. Sigmund Freud & Bruce Cromer as C.S. Lewis

This spirited drama centers on legendary psychoanalyst Dr. Sigmund Freud, who invites a then little-known professor, C.S. Lewis, to his home in London. Lewis, expecting to be called on the carpet for satirizing Freud in a recent book, soon realizes Freud has a much more significant agenda. On the day England enters World War II, Freud and Lewis clash on the existence of God, love, sex and the meaning of life—only two weeks before Freud chooses to take his own. Not just a powerful debate, this is a profound and deeply touching play about two men who boldly addressed the greatest questions of all time.
