I love it when East West Players takes a theater classic and puts an Asian American spin on it. Definitely interested in seeing their unique take on the Southern tragic comedy.

CRIMES OF THE HEART
By Beth Henley
Directed by Leslie Ishii
Meet three delightfully dysfunctional sisters: Babe has just shot her husband, Meg is fresh from the loony bin, and Lenny celebrates her birthday alone by sticking a candle in a cookie. This Southern Pulitzer Prize-winning classic with an Asian American cast will be an unforgettable night of laughter and tears in East West Players style.
