Providence Players of Fairfax is thrilled to reveal the talented cast bringing Beth Henley’s Crimes of the Heart to life on our stage this March! This darkly funny and Pulitzer Prize-winning tragicomedy follows the Magrath sisters as they reunite at Old Granddaddy’s home in Hazlehurst, Mississippi after a family crisis sends shockwaves through their lives. At once sharp, heartfelt, and hilarious, the play explores love, resentment, and the complicated bonds of family in a way that keeps audiences laughing even as the truth cuts deep.
We’re proud to introduce the cast of this unforgettable ensemble:
Sara Joy Lebowitz – Lenny Magrath
Jennie Murdock* – Meg Magrath
Kelly Farmar* – Babe Botrelle
Raeanna Larson* – Chick Boyle
Meighan Hogate* – Doc Porter
Belol Nessar* – Barnette Loyd
