“Becoming Dr. Ruth” at Bangor Opera House

Penobscot Theatre Company presents “Becoming Dr. Ruth,” by Mark St. Germain, at the Bangor Opera House.

This is a remarkable woman’s untold story.

Everyone knows Dr. Ruth Westheimer from her career as a pioneering radio and television sex therapist. Few, however, know the incredible journey that preceded it. Mark St. Germain deftly illuminates this remarkable woman’s untold story. “Becoming Dr. Ruth” is full of humor, honesty, and the life-affirming spirit of Karola Ruth Siegel, the girl who became “Dr. Ruth.” Jen Shepard brings the role to life. A Maine premiere!
