The Barrington Stage Company in Pittsfield is currently staging Freud's Last Session, a play built around some of the "big questions" of philosophy. From the BSC website:
After escaping the Nazis in Vienna, legendary psychiatrist Dr. Sigmund
Freud invites a young, little known professor, C.S. Lewis, to his home in
London. Lewis expects to be called on the carpet for satirizing Freud in a
recent book but the dying Freud has a more significant agenda. On the day
England entered WW II, Freud and Lewis clash on the existence of God, love, sex
and the meaning of life – only two weeks before Freud chose to take his
own.
I've been in touch with the BSC directors, and they offer a student rate of $15. They would arrange a Q&A with the actors after the show for us, too. They suggest the performance on Sunday, October 4 at 7:30 pm, but there are other dates and times.
Comment if you're even possibly interested; if there's enough feedback, I'll look into the logistics of arranging it.
sounds good, and $15 is a really good price too.
