FREUD'S LAST SESSION Tickets Snag $5,000 at Annual MPSC Gala

FREUD'S LAST SESSION, the smash hit play by Mark St. Germain, brought in a whopping $5,000 for a lot of four tickets at the 15th anniversary Midtown Pregnancy Support Center Spring Gala on April 29th in New York City. Other prizes at the auction included tickets to Saturday Night Live (which went for $2,700) and the NY Jets opening game on 9/11 (which brought in $2,200).

FREUD'S LAST SESSION is the winner of the 2011 Off-Broadway Alliance Award for Best Play. After opening on July 22, 2010 to rave reviews, the show immediately became a sellout sensation at the Marjorie S. Deane Little Theater, 10 West 64th Street (at Central Park West). Additional productions of FREUD'S LAST SESSION are already set through 2011 and 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 (Martin Rayner), who invites the young, rising academic star C.S. Lewis (Mark H. Dold) 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 - just 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 new play was suggested by the bestselling book The Question of God by Harvard's Dr. Armand M. Nicholi, Jr.
