Peter Sagal, host of the popular and extremely funny NPR show “Wait, Wait…Don’t Tell Me,” will headline a cadre of performers who explore the ups and downs of romance and love via verse in Chicago Poetry Center’s 3^rd Annual “No Love for Love” Valentine’s Day show.

Hosted by Jonathan Messinger, the event also features performances by Rosie Forrest, Edward Thomas-Herrera, Robbie Q. Telfer, and filmmaker Steve Delahoyde. A pre-show VIP reception (tickets $150 each) with Peter Sagal will offer attendees the chance to meet Peter and mingle with others while enjoying drinks, hors d’oeuvres and a private book signing. It’s a pre-Valentine’s Day valentine to the myriad faces and foibles of love.
