Piece Description

The air is thick with Freud and sex as eminent psychoanalyst Melanie Klein comes roaring to life in a 1930's drawing room. The city of London offers the witty, overbearing Mrs. Klein refuge from rising European fascism. But perhaps her children are still in need of refuge – from her. The show includes an interview with Dr. Chris Minnick, Associate Professor at the University of Southern California's School of Medicine, and one of the country's leading "Kleinians".
