Due to overwhelming demand, Mark St. Germain's runaway hit play FREUD'S LAST SESSION today put a new block of seats on sale through February 26th. FREUD'S LAST SESSION, starring Mark H. Dold and Martin Rayner, is the winner of the 2011 Off-Broadway Alliance Award for Best Play. Now in its second smash year, the play recently transferred to New World Stages after initially opening on July 22, 2010 to rave reviews at the Marjorie S. Deane Theater. Despite the substantially increased number of seats at its new venue, FREUD'S LAST SESSION continues to be Off-Broadway's biggest sellout sensation. Additional productions are set through 2012 in major markets across the nation and around the world.

Under the direction of Tyler Marchant, FREUD'S LAST SESSION centers on legendary psychoanalyst Dr. Sigmund Freud, who invites the young, rising academic star 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. Mark St. Germain's celebrated play was suggested by the bestselling book The Question of God by Harvard's Dr. Armand M. Nicholi, Jr.
There have been an unusually high number of celebrity sightings at FREUD'S LAST SESSION throughout its first year, including such luminaries as Woody Allen, Alec Baldwin, Barbara Walters, Dr. Ruth, Christiane Amanpour, Jerry Stiller, Marcia Gay Harden, Dick Cavett, John Cleese, Andy Rooney, Patricia Heaton, Dan Lauria, Celeste Holm, T.R. Knight, Peter Shaffer, Tina Louise, Warner Wolf, Cornel West, The Amazing Kreskin, and NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell.

FREUD'S LAST SESSION is produced Off-Broadway by Carolyn Rossi Copeland, Robert Stillman and Jack Thomas. The performance schedule at New World Stages (340 West 50th Street) is Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday at 8pm, Saturday at 2 & 8pm, and Sunday at 3 & 7pm. Tickets are $65 and are available at Telecharge.com 212-239-6200 or through www.FreudsLastSession.com. A limited number of $20 Student Rush tickets (cash only, with valid student ID) are available at the box office beginning three hours prior to each performance.
