"Crimes of the Heart" by Beth Henley is a Pulitzer Prize winning dark comedy. It tells the story of the three Magrath sisters who come together to await word of their dying grandfather and to support the youngest sister, Babe, who is charged with shooting her abusive husband. Lenny and Meg, the two older sisters, face their own problems as all three sisters realize they are stronger together as a family.

"It has heart, wit and a surprisingly zany passion that must carry all before it...it would certainly be a crime for anyone interested in the theatre not to see this play." —NY Post.

"From time to time a play comes along that restores one's faith in our theatre…" —NY Magazine.

"While this play overflows with infectious high spirits, it is also, unmistakably, the tale of a very troubled family. Such is Miss Henley's prodigious talent that she can serve us pain as though it were a piece of cake." —NY Times.
