Emerald Coast Theatre Company (ECTC) presents Crimes of the Heart, February 16 – February 25, 2024. Beth Henley’s Pulitzer Prize-winner is a deeply touching and funny play about three eccentric sisters from a small Southern town rocked by scandal when Babe, the youngest, shoots her husband. Humor and pathos abound as the sisters unite with an intense young lawyer to save Babe from a murder charge and overcome their family’s painful past.

Nathanael Fisher, co-founder and producing artistic director of ECTC says, “Hilarious, touching and scandalous, Crimes of the Heart shows how strong family ties really can be, no matter the circumstance. This is one to truly not miss.”
