Freud the Musical, King's Head Theatre

Natasha Sutton-Williams is both writer and actor in this daring one-woman show that gleefully picks apart the bombastic Sigmund Freud, famous Austrian neurologist and founding father of psychoanalysis. Sutton-Williams' cutting edge writing sees mental illness and sexuality converge with bawdy comedy and cross-dressing.

Drowning in debt and addicted to cocaine, Freud seeks inspiration from his imaginary cat friend 'Oedipussy' and attends to his hodgepodge of patients: an incensed Dora, the neurotic 'Rat Man' and classic Freudian Little Hans. The musical's original score has been written by pianist Phil Blandford.

Prepare for sex, madness and medicine in this hilarious show's extended run at The King's Head Theatre this August.
