The Interpretation of Dreams by Sigmund Freud
by Dead Centre
Duration and Breaks: 2 hours - no intermission
Translated by Anna Opel
A book like a dream, as groundbreaking as it is controversial: Sigmund Freud's The Interpretation of Dreams is as impenetrable as the soul it examines. A confusing guide to the landscapes of dreams and thereby to the self, which, according to Freud, dreams exclusively concern. Until the end of his life, he considered The Interpretation of Dreams his most important work, a founding document of psychoanalysis and a scientific guide to understanding dreams. Freud was convinced that he could solve the mysteries of dreams and thereby find access to the soul, which he describes as an obscure wish-machine.
The British-Irish theater duo Dead Centre creates both intellectually stimulating and entertaining adaptations of the great works of our Western culture, continually delighting in shaking up the boundary between fiction on stage and reality in the audience. In this production, which premiered in 2020, the audience can expect a theatrical dream workshop that takes them from Dr. Freud's consulting room at Berggasse 19 to our own children’s rooms.

Academy Theatre
Designed by the architects Fellner & Hellmer and Ludwig Baumann and built between 1911 and 1913, the Akademietheater has been the Burgtheater’s second venue since 1922. After many years of requests from ensemble members of the Burgtheater who wanted a second stage of more intimate dimensions, Max Paulsen succeeded in affiliating the “Theatre of the Academy of Music and the Performing Arts”, for brevity 's sake called Akademietheater, to the Burgtheater as a smaller, second venue. It was inaugurated on September 8, 1922, with a performance of Goethe’s Iphigenia in Tauris. After the Second World War, which the building survived intact, the theatre was re-opened on May 19, 1945, under the direction of Raoul Aslan with Ibsen’s Hedda Gabler. The Akademietheater was refurbished and technically upgraded in 1974 and in 1999.
