In these five vignettes by Itamar Moses about the tactics we use to get love, and how we hang on white-knuckled once we get it, nothing is what it seems. An interview with a Russian director becomes a passive aggressive altercation. A play is stripped down to basic subtext and rebuilt as something else entirely. A writer must swallow his a pride to meet the man who took his place. Through it all, there’s that universal truth about love: it hurts, but you will get used to it. Tickets: $20.
