Freud's Last Session, by Mark St. Germain, directed by Rob Melrose

In an imagined meeting between two of the 20th century's greatest minds, legendary psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud, suffering from terminal cancer, invites young professor C.S. Lewis to his London home. Lewis assumes Freud is upset about having been satirized by Lewis in a recent book. But Freud has a different -- and more surprising -- agenda. As the two debate the most important questions of our existence in a witty, intellectual sword fight, their conversation ranges from God, morality, conscience and sex to the meaning of life. Don't miss this astute play that balances intellectual depth with humor and compassion.
