Dali’s Dream was previously produced in 2016 at the 4th Street Theatre in NYC where this unique play-phantasmagoria was the winner of the 3rd Annual Radioactive Festival. A festival that celebrates female playwrights.
Salvador Dali worshiped the famous psychoanalyst – Doctor Sigmund Freud, ardently wished to meet him and discuss his own complexes as well as paranoia. One such meeting had occurred, but the exhausting imaginary conversations with Doctor Freud continued.
Once, in a dream, Dali visits a sanitarium, where he becomes witness to the sessions of psychoanalysis held by Doctor Freud and, eventually, the painter finds himself on the doctor’s couch! So, who is he – a genius or a paranoiac? The surrealistic fog which envelops the figure of Dali starts to dissipate…
