Please pick up Crimes of the Heart by Beth Henley from our library. Please read this play next week during our class absence (and your mid-terms).
Beth Henley is a contemporary American playwright best known for her quirky colloquial plays. She has been compared to the Southern writers Flannery o'Connor and Eudora Welty. She carries the dramatic torch of the South in the tradition of Tennessee Williams (more on him soon).
Her plays are often set in the South (she grew up in Mississippi) and depict the people and settings she grew up with--just another example of a writer writing about what she knows.
Please complete your 10-minute play script today.
