'Crimes of the Heart' Plays Final Performance On 4/20

Roundabout Theatre Company's (Todd Haimes, Artistic Director) limited engagement of Crimes of the Heart will play its final performance on Sunday, April 20th at 2:00 PM. The Pulitzer Prize winning play Crimes of the Heart, written by Beth Henley and directed by Kathleen Turner, features Patch Darragh (Doc Porter), Jennifer Dundas (Lenny Magrath), Sarah Paulson (Meg Magrath), Lily Rabe (Babe Botrelle), Jessica Stone (Chick Boyle) and Chandler Williams (Barnette Lloyd).
 
Crimes of the Heart will have played 31 preview performances and 77 regular performances. Previews began on Friday, January 18th, 2008 and opened officially on Thursday, February 14th, Off-Broadway at the Laura Pels Theatre at the Harold and Miriam Steinberg Center for Theatre (111 West 46th Street).
 
 Crimes of the Heart is a sharply funny play about the sometimes frayed edges of sisterly bonds.  The Magrath sisters have trouble with men.  Lonely Lenny (Dundas) never married, failed singer/actress Meg (Paulson) lost count, and the youngest, Babe (Rabe) married an abuser—and shot him.  Now the sisters reunite at Old Granddaddy's home in Hazelhurst, Mississippi to face life's most absurd tragedies.  Alone, each woman might call it quits.  Together, they'll have the most hilarious time of their lives.
