BECOMING DR. RUTH By Mark St. Germain Directed by Holly Twyford Starring Naomi Jacobson February 21-March 18, 2018
She’s
America’s favorite sex therapist! But before she became Dr. Ruth,
Karola Siegel had to flee Germany in the Kindertransport, become a
sniper in Jerusalem, and survive as a single mother in America. Starring
Naomi Jacobson, this heartwarming one-woman show is written by the
author of Theater J’s Freud’s Last Session. Filled with humor and honesty, Becoming Dr. Ruth is a triumphant and life-affirming story of a girl who found her own unique place in the world.
“More than just another celebrity memoir… a family saga, a Holocaust drama and an exploration of 20th-century Jewish identity.”–The New York Times
