This week's New York Times In Performance video features Tony Award-winning actors Matthew Broderick and Annaleigh Ashford in a scene from A. R. Gurney's comedy SYLVIA, now plahing at Broadway's Cort Theater. In the featured scene, Sylvia (Ashford) is excited to get to know her new home and reveals a "leg-shaking dog-love" to her new owner (Broderick), barking "I think you're God."
Funny and heartwarming, Sylvia is about what happens when a smart, sassy, captivating canine befriends a New Yorker in Central Park and changes his life -- and his wife's life -- forever. This wonderful look into the complexities of love and commitment asks what it truly means to be devoted to your partner...and how do you choose between the love of your life and man's best friend?
