Socrates in the City (SITC) will attend a second performance of the Off-Broadway show Freud's Last Session Sunday, April 3 at 7 pm. Immediately after the play, host Eric Metaxas will moderate a special Q&A "talkback" with the play's writer, Mark St. Germain, and the two actors who play Freud and Lewis (Mark H. Dold and Martin Rayner).

A ticket price of $65 covers a wine-and hors d'oeuvres reception at 6:15, the play at 7 and the talkback. Only 100 tickets are available on a first-come, first-served basis.

SITC is somewhat responsible for this play's existence, Metaxas explains:

"A few years ago we had Harvard's Dr. Armand Nicholi as one of our speakers at SITC. He spoke about his book, The Question of God, which compares the worldviews of Sigmund Freud and C.S. Lewis. In our audience that night was a playwright named Mark St. Germain, who was inspired to write a play about these two men and what they believed. Thus was born "Freud's Last Session."
