Beth Henley's Comedy-Drama

"Crimes of The Heart"

Directed by J.D. Mizikowski

Winner of the 1981 Pulitzer Prize and the New York Drama Critics Circle Award.

The Magrath sisters have gathered to await news of their grandfather, who is living out his last hours in the hospital.

Lenny, the oldest sister, is unmarried at thirty; with no marital  prospects. Meg, the middle sister, is back after a failed singing career on the West Coast; while Babe, the youngest, is out on bail after having shot her husband in the stomach.

Their troubles, grave and yet, somehow, hilarious, are highlighted by their priggish cousin, Chick, and by the awkward young lawyer who tries to keep Babe out of jail while helpless not to fall in love with her.
