Theatre--Performance

This is the final weekend to catch the Pulitzer Prize-winning play, Crimes Of The Heart, written by Beth Henley and directed by Charlee Halphen Swain. Those who have already attended are raving about this production and even returning for a second time. Join Charlee and her cast, Micahel Cato, Sarah Gauthier, Sara Hitchcock, Rachel LeBlanc, Heath Swain and Elizabeth Satterly.

At the core of this tragic comedy are the three Magrath sisters, Meg, Babe, and Lenny, who reunite at Old Granddaddy's home in Hazlehurst, Mississippi after Babe shoots her abusive husband. The trio was raised in a dysfunctional family with a penchant for ugly predicaments and each has endured her share of hardship and misery. Past resentments bubble to the surface as they're forced to deal with assorted relatives and past relationships while coping with the latest incident that has disrupted their lives. Each sister is forced to face the consequences of the "crimes of the heart" she has committed.
