HYSTERIA

By Terry Johnson

Terry Johnson’s brilliant comedy and farce takes its inspiration from history, when in 1938 the surrealist painter Salvador Dali paid a visit to Sigmund Freud. Freud had recently escaped Nazi Europe and settled in London.

Hysteria imagines the fallout when two of the twentieth century’s most brilliant and original minds collide. 

Hysteria also imagines that Freud received another guest who rattles and disturbs the founder of psychoanalysis and holds him accountable to a terrible truth.

Darlinghurst Theatre Company produces and presents the Sydney Premiere of Hysteria.
