LOVE 2.0 with DR. Ruth Westheimer is set for tonight, February 8, at 7:30PM at Symphony Space.
Just in time for Valentine's Day, Dr. Ruth Westheimer introduces an evening of fictional love stories, performed by actors including Peter Sagal (Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!), Kathleen Turner (Californication), and showbiz sweethearts Dylan Baker (The Americans) and Becky Ann Baker (Girls).
Mannered tales of chivalry and courtly love unfold alongside modern rituals of speed dating and anonymous encounters online. In a special twist, we present real, looking-for-love profiles from OkCupid.
Selected Shorts was conceived with a simple premise: take great stories by well-known and emerging writers and have them performed by terrific actors of stage and screen.
