‘Crimes of the Heart’ play dates, times and ticket info
Playwright: Beth Henley
Synopsis: The story follows three sisters who have reunited for the first time in a decade at their Granddaddy’s house in Hazlehurst, Mississippi. Lenny Magrath is the eldest. She actually never left Hazlehurst, remaining in Hazlehurst to take care of the cantankerous old coot. It’s Lenny’s birthday, but the sisters seem to be having a little trouble celebrating the event. Meg is the middle sister. She left home for Los Angeles to pursue fame and fortune as a singer, but so far has only found happiness at the bottom of a bottle. Babe is the youngest, and has the most problems of the three. In fact, she’s just been arrested – for shooting her abusive husband, Zachary Bottrelle, who tried to kill the 15-year-old with whom Babe had been having an affair. Raised in a dysfunctional family with a penchant for ugly predicaments, the Magrath girls have endured their fair share of hardship and misery. Past resentments bubble to the surface as the sisters are forced to deal with assorted relatives and past relationships while coping with Babe’s latest incident. In the end, each sister is forced to face the consequences of the “crimes of the heart” she has committed.
