 Mizpah Congregation will present the off-Broadway production of Becoming Dr. Ruth, an intimate and intriguing conversation with Ruth Westheimer, starring Atlanta’s own Eileen Koteles, as Dr. Ruth. The performance will be held Sunday at 2 p.m. at the Temple, 923 McCallie Ave.

Review for Becoming Dr. Ruth:

Much of the world knows Dr. Ruth as the talkative and animated short little old lady who can stun even the most worldly of us with her sex topics. But what you are about to learn is that Dr. Ruth is a Holocaust survivor, a member of the Kindertransport, and a former sniper for the Jewish underground army.

The show is made possible through the generous support of the Hanan family and Jacobs Wholesale Paper Company.

The price of admission is $12 and guests may pay at the door. The money raised from this event will benefit Mizpah’s Kindertransport Chapel. 

This one-woman show runs 90 minutes with a short intermission. Please note. The play contains discussion of healthy sex and sexuality, while covering other mature topics.
