On Saturday, November 15, 2014, a staged reading of "On the Shoulders of a Giant: Fictional Conversations Between Sigmund Freud and Wilhelm Reich" by Dr. Charles Konia was performed by Gregory L. Wilson (Freud) and Terrence Montgomery (Reich) with an introduction by Mark Lobene at the Paul Robeson Center for the Arts in Princeton, New Jersey on Saturday, November 15, 2014.

Sigmund Freud and Wilhelm Reich made monumental discoveries about the human psyche that impacted the emotional life of countless people across the globe. This momentous work presents little-known but vitally important facts regarding their relationship, events of the early 20th Century in the world of psychoanalysis and psychiatry, and social conditions in Europe. It also posits how these two legendary scientists would reflect on current events were they alive today. What would Reich and Freud say if they saw the state of today's world and the condition of society and psychiatry? By showcasing Reich in his true relationship to Freud, this work demonstrates what these giants have given us and puts their relationship in a new light.
