Selected Shorts: Love 2.0 with Dr. Ruth Westheimer, Kathleen Turner & More

Just in time for Valentine’s Day, Dr. Ruth Westheimer introduces an evening of love stories, performed by actors including Peter Sagal (Wait Wait… Don’t Tell Me!), Kathleen Turner (Californication), showbiz sweethearts Dylan Baker (The Americans) and Becky Ann Baker (Girls), and more!

Mannered tales of chivalry and courtly love unfold alongside modern rituals of speed dating and anonymous encounters online. Kisses will be shared, tears shed, hearts will swell and break, but by the conclusion of the evening you’ll be surer than ever that the more things change, the more they stay the same.

Please note: There will not be a public book signing following this event.

Selected Shorts is produced by Symphony Space and broadcast on more than 150 stations around the country. The Selected Shorts podcast consistently ranks as one of the most popular podcasts on iTunes. The series began in 1985 and enjoys sold-out performances to this day. 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. Featuring stories around a lively theme, the favorite works of a guest author, or a special collaboration, each Selected Shorts event is a unique night of literature in performance.

Premium tickets are available and include a $50 tax-deductible donation to Symphony Space.

Actors are subject to change.
