Sessions Tickets and Information
Synopsis
Algonquin Theater Productions presents award-winning playwright Al Tapper's original musical, Sessions. Steven Petrillo directs, Penny Ayn Maas provides the choreography and Steven Gross is the musical director.
The musical centers around Dr. Peter Peterson, an affluent New York therapist who discovers his own life is as much in need of examination as those of his patients. Among those causing Dr. Peterson angst are the bickering Murphys, the loner George, the aptly named Sunshine, the troubled Mary, the millionaire Baxter, and Dylan who really believes he is THAT (Bob) Dylan. On top of it all is Leila, the femme fatale with eyes...and long, long legs...for Dr. Peterson.

Review: Fun, intimate musical... feels like you are part of the group therapy by fattsmann
This was a fun musical to watch. The small, intimate theater makes you feel that you are part of the group therapy that is the core of the show. Each of the characters represents a caricature of common psychological problems/elements that people face/question in their lives -- insecurity, love, betrayal, etc. -- that definitely people can relate to in the characters. The resolution of the musical and some of the songs are a little "cheesy" and expected, but overall, its a nice little show.
