FREUD'S LAST SESSION, which just reopened Off-Broadway on January 14th, will be featured on WMCA Radio (570 AM) this Wednesday, January 19th. Producer Carolyn Rossi Copeland and Mark H. Dold, who portrays C.S. Lewis in the play, will discuss the production on Kevin Cottrell's popular drive time show "Koffee with Kevin" at 6:45 a.m. WMCA is New York's premiere Christian radio station. The interview can also be heard live at www.wmca.com.

The Off-Broadway premiere engagement of FREUD'S LAST SESSION, a new play by Mark St. Germain, opened on July 22, 2010 to rave reviews and immediately became a sellout sensation at the Marjorie S. Deane Little Theater, 10 West 64th Street (at Central Park West). Due to a prior December booking commitment at the theatre, the limited engagement of FREUD'S LAST SESSION concluded performances as scheduled on November 28th. After the initial run continued to play to sellout houses in its final weeks, the producers made the decision to reopen the play as soon as the theatre would be once again available in January. FREUD'S LAST SESSION stars Mark H. Dold and Martin Rayner (as Sigmund Freud), 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 - 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.

FREUD'S LAST SESSION had its world premiere at Barrington Stage Company (MA) in June 2009, where it was extended twice and brought back by popular demand for two subsequent encore engagements. It holds the record as the longest-running show in Barrington Stage's history.

FREUD'S LAST SESSION is presented Off-Broadway by Carolyn Rossi Copeland, Robert Stillman and Jack Thomas.
