Freud's House

He is a struggling model and substance abuser in a shallow relationship with a California blond; she is an intensely bright and accomplished doctor whose current relationship is an uneasy flirtation with a gentile doctor. He is there to join the current trend of "rediscovering" his religion; she has always been fiercely devoted to hers

Over a year's worth of religious holidays, their relationship changes from hostility to attraction to a full-fledged affair - until they betray each other, ostensibly in the name of faith

A provocative romantic comedy, Freud's House entertainingly examines how we use religion for our own ends, and treats both of its characters with compassion but without sentimentality: Each is sincere; each is right; each is at fault

Premiered at the Ensemble Studio Theatre Marathon of One-Act Plays, in New York City
