FREUD, LES DÉMONS
Overview
Intro
CIE MARIN
Novelist Metin Arditi, author of The Man Who Combed the World and You Will Be My Father, published his first theatrical text in 2021, consisting of three monologues, including Freud, the Demons.
In 1939, Freud fled Vienna for London. The author imagines the last night of the psychiatrist. Freud returns to his ambitions, his need to exert control over others, and his fear of being humiliated. He regrets that he did not dare to touch the breast of Lou Andrea Salomé. He compares himself to Nietzsche, a genius next to whom he is only a workhorse. In his night, his father appears and reproaches him for being late to his funeral and for not having said the Kaddish at his death. Marked by caustic humor, the play reviews Freud's last night, but this life review could be that of anyone and everyone on the threshold of life, with all its flaws and doubts.
