Crimes of the Heart

Winner of the 1981 Pulitzer Prize and the New York Drama Critics Circle Award, Crimes of the Heart is an award winning play that centers on the lives of three women from a small town in Mississippi. The play tells the story of a lifetime of experiences, good and bad, and how even the smallest joys or tragedies can transform your life. The McGrath sisters’ passions have sent them all on different paths, whether they have spent their lives pursuing those passions or avoiding them, and their candid interactions about their experiences give each of them, and the audience, cause to think about the decisions they make in those pursuits.
