Description Despite turmoil from within and without, the respectable routines of the Freud household at Berggassa 19 in Vienna remined unchanged for 47 years. The family ate at the same times, patients came and went on the hour, and a barber was admitted every morning to trim the doctor's beard. The play attempts to analyse the permeating presence of Freud in the modern consciousness, just as he himself might have analysed a dream.
