FREUD'S LAST SESSION Welcomes AP Psych Students

FREUD'S LAST SESSION, the runaway hit play by Mark St. Germain, is pleased to welcome 32 AP Psychology students from Benjamin N. Cardozo High School in Bayside, Queens Tuesday evening, May 31st. The show's stars, Mark H. Dold and Martin Rayner will host a Q&A session with the students immediately following the performance at the Marjorie S.

Critical Acclaim for FREUD'S LAST SESSION:

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.  FREUD'S LAST SESSION is directed by Tyler Marchant.
