“Austria, we have a problem. A cocaine problem!”
The Feature Presentation of 2026's OUTwright Theatre Festival
He may be best known as the father of modern psychology, but did you know that Sigmund Freud also had a wicked cocaine habit? And he managed to get all of his family and friends addicted to it, actually killing his best friend and research partner and threatening to destroy his whole career and family.
Fresh off a sold-out Los Angeles run that extended twice, Freud on Cocaine is a hilarious fusion of farcical comedy and postmodern storytelling that sheds new light on the true story that history would rather we forget. If a man as great as Sigmund Freud, with the brain of a genius, can become an addict, anyone can.
Join Freud on this zany trip down the rabbit hole as he battles his own inner demons. A scathing indictment of Big Pharma and the lies and corruption that are the result of when capitalism and healthcare intersect, Freud on Cocaine offers that rare gem of being both outright hilarious and sneakily educational.
