Crimes of the Heart by Beth Henley The three MaGrath sisters are back together in their hometown of Hazelhurst, Mississippi for the first time in a decade. Lenny, the eldest, never left Hazelhurst -- she is the caretaker of the sisters’ cantankerous Old Granddaddy. Meg, the middle sister, left home to pursue stardom as a singer in Los Angeles, but has, so far, only found happiness at the bottom of a bottle. And Babe, the youngest, has just been arrested for the murder of her abusive husband, Zackery Bottrelle. Under the scorching heat of the Mississippi sun, past resentments bubble to the surface and each sister must come to terms with the consequences of her own “crimes of the heart.” November 14 - 16 at 7:30pm and November 17 at 3:00pm A Staged Reading Of: Machinal by Sophie Treadwell Machinal is the story of “a young woman, any woman,”—a woman destroyed by “a world of money, men, and machines.” Machinal depicts the struggle for personal fulfillment in a world where alienation, commodification and automation reign supreme. A world that is past, present and future. January 24 at 7:30pm The Annual Movement Concert Choreographed by Kelly Doremus Stuart An annual event produced by the New England College Theatre Department since 1994. Each Concert explores a different theme through movement and dance, music, text, poetry and images. These original productions have been described as creative, unique, humorous, heartfelt, off beat, and awesome! You don’t want to miss it! February 14 - 15 at 7:30pm February 16 at 3:00pm How I Learned to Drive by Paula Vogel Paula Vogel’s groundbreaking and controversial play How I Learned to Drive tells the story of a young girl who grows up in a complex and sexually abusive relationship with her uncle in 1960’s Maryland. The play follows the young girl, Lil’ Bit, from her adolescence through college years and ends with her as a thirty-something adult. Although Lil’ Bit and her uncle share a mutual understanding and care deeply for one another, the years of manipulation and sexual confusion eventually drive them apart and wreak havoc on both of their psyches.
