FREUD IN LOVE
SCENE 1. FREUD´S HOME LIVING
Living room of Sigmund Freud´s home in Vienna with the classical look of the bourgeoisie homes at the end of the XIX century. Martha Bernays, wife to Sigmund Freud, around 35 years, well rounded, maternal looking, is sitting at the table holding papers in her hand. Minna Bernays, her sister, younger and much more attractive, is sitting at her side. Both sisters look very much the same but are very different in their attitude. MARTHA is slow and boring while MInna is funny and witty. The table is set for tea. They pour and drink while chatting.
MARTHA
Oliver is energy in constant movement, never still, never tired. Martin is a trouble maker, always misbehaving. Naughty, naughty boy. Ernest always fighting with the lisping and with so many problems at school. Just because of that. Sophie eats very Little and need laudanum xxx every night to be able to sleep and Ana… is just a baby. We don´t know yet how she is going to turn out.
MINNA.
I see everything is still working like clockwork. It´s like in the army. Your rules… your husband, your children…Your home is your kingdom.
MARTHA
That is so. Thanks God. How come we´ve been so lucky?
MINNA
…and Oliver? Still writing?
MARTHA
It´s his calling. Like the father. He just wrote a poem for school.
MINNA
Poem? What subject?
MARTHA
(disturbed) I don´t know actually. I didn´t read it. With 6 children, always one is sick… I´m always running behind, How fortunate Minna you can stay with us for a while with us. The children adore you.
