This March The Valley Theatre
presents Beth Henley’s Pulitzer Prize winning dramedy Crimes of the Heart directed by Nic Gunning.
Lenny MaGrath’s
(Rachel Stowe) life consists of taking care of her ailing Granddaddy and being
henpecked by her pushy cousin Chick (Amanda Cox). As her 30th birthday goes largely
unnoticed Lenny worries that her spiral into spinsterhood is inevitable. When Granddaddy takes a turn for the worse
Lenny calls her sisters home to say their goodbyes only to discover that her
unreliable middle sister Meg (Carly Trask) is nowhere to be found and her
youngest sister Babe (Amy Coon) is behind bars for attempted murder! Luckily for the MaGrath sisters Barnette
Lloyd (Ben Layman) is fresh out of law school and eager to take on Babe’s
hopeless case. Meanwhile, Meg’s return
after a long absence brings tension among the sisters and potential disaster
for her happily married high school sweetheart Doc Porter (Eric Mikols). As the sisters struggle to deal with their
troubled past and complicated present they grow to realize that they need each
other now more than ever.
The show will
run at the Houghton Fire Hall Thursday March 9 and Friday March 10 at 7pm. All tickets are just $5 and will be available
at the door or by reservation. With
