The Oprheum was in the mood for love on Tuesday for night three of Seth Rogens Table Read of the comedy classic When Harry Met Sally. Rogen kicked the night off praising the film and its star Billy Crystal who he described as "the pinnacle of Jewish male sexuality." Rogen assumed the role of "Jess," Harrys best friend, and introduced a stellar line up including Nick Kroll as Harry and Zazi Beats as Sally. The cast was rounded out by Casey Wilson, Atsuko Okatsuka, Rory Scovel, Tommy Chong and June Squibb. Stephen Merchant acted as narrator. Zazi Beats did not disappoint in her recreation of Sallys orgasm scene in Katzs Deli. She was only slightly up-straged by June Squibbs delivery of the classic follow up - "Ill have what shes having." A small ensemble provided musical cues from the films soundtrack throughout the night.
Wednesday night marked the fourth and final night if Seth Rogen's Table Reads featuring a reading of the Clueless script in front of a packed house.
