THE INTERPRETATION OF DREAMS BY SIGMUND FREUD

A book like a dream. As groundbreaking as it is controversial. Sigmund Freud’s THE INTERPRETATION OF DREAMS is no less impenetrable than the soul it strives to illuminate. It is a confused guide to the scenes we see in our dreams and, consequently, to our ego, which is what dreams are all about, says Freud. He was convinced that he could gain access to the soul, which he describes as an obscure desiring machine.

The British-Irish theatrical duo Dead Centre create intelligent yet entertaining adaptations of the great works of Western culture. With great relish, they upset the separation between the onstage fiction and the audience’s reality.
