FREUD’S LAST SESSION Opens Tonight At Pittsburgh Public Theater

By:

FREUD'S LAST SESSION is set to open tonight, March 9th at 8 PM at Pittsburgh Public Theater. Under the direction of Mary B. Robinson, the Pittsburgh debut of FREUD'S LAST SESSION stars Jonathan Crombie as C. S. Lewis and David Wohl as Sigmund Freud.

Winner of the 2011 Off Broadway Alliance Award for Best Play, FREUD'S LAST SESSION is currently in its second smash year at NYC's New World Stages (340 West 50th Street), starring Mark H. Dold and Martin Rayner, directed by Tyler Marchant. Beginning next Friday, March 16th, the new stars of the New York production will be George Morfogen and Jim Stanek. Original cast members Dold and Rayner will play their final performance March 15th before hitting the road to open the upcoming Chicago premiere of FREUD'S LAST SESSION.

Additional productions of FREUD'S LAST SESSION are already set to open into 2013 in major markets across the nation and around the world, including London, Madrid, Tokyo, Rio de Janeiro, Los Angeles, Mexico City, Seattle, and Indianapolis.

FREUD'S LAST SESSION centers on psychoanalyst Dr. Sigmund Freud, who invites 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 – just two weeks before Freud chooses to take his own.

This play was suggested by the bestselling book The Question of God by Harvard's Dr. Armand M. Nicholi, Jr.

Playwright Mark St. Germain has written the plays Camping with Henry and Tom (Outer Critics Circle and Lucille Lortel Awards), The Best of Enemies, Out of Gas on Lover's Leap, and Forgiving Typhoid Mary. With Randy Courts, he has written the musicals The Gifts of the Magi, Johnny Pye and the Foolkiller and Jack's Holiday. TV credits include Writer and Creative Consultant for The Cosby Show. Mark co-wrote the screenplay for the acclaimed film Duma, and he directed and co-produced the documentary My Dog: An Unconditional Love Story featuring Richard Gere, Glenn Close and Edward Albee, among many others.
