Hysteria
By Terry Johnson
A regional premiere production, presented in Season 9
April 23-May 17, 2015
Sigmund Freud is dying. But before he does, there are visitors to be met, and reckonings to be made. A life-long friend insists upon a rewrite. A mysterious girl turns up in his study, demanding time on his couch. And once Salvador Dalí himself arrives, the stage is set for a splendidly silly exploration of the subconscious that makes for “audacious and dazzlingly clever farce” (Financial Times, London).
