George Morfogen and Jim Stanek Depart FREUD'S LAST SESSION Tonight

George Morfogen and Jim Stanek will play their final performance in the award-winning Off-Broadway hit FREUD'S LAST SESSION tonight, April 30th.

Original cast members Mark H. Dold and Martin Rayner are returning to the New York production this Wednesday, May 2nd following their run in the Chicago production of Mark St. Germain's hit play.

Under the direction of Tyler Marchant, FREUD'S LAST SESSION centers on legendary psychoanalyst Dr. Sigmund Freud (George Morfogen), who invites the young, rising academic star C. S. Lewis (Jim Stanek) 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 – only 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.
