From celebrated Maine playwright Willy Holtzman, comes a new musical, Sabina. From Carl Jung’s patient, to lover, to student, Sabina pioneered the feminist movement that changed psychoanalysis forever and brought Jung and Freud together. Nearly forgotten to history, her story will be sung.
The turbulent relationship between Carl Jung and Sigmund Freud is well-known. But the story of Sabina Spielrein – Jung’s patient, protege, and lover – was nearly lost to history. Sabina introduced him to an inner world of archetype and shadow that became the foundation of Jungian psychology. She later brought Jung and Freud together and, in many ways, surpassed them as a pioneering feminist psychoanalyst who was the hero of her own story.
