Winner of the 1981 Pulitzer Prize and the New York Drama Critics Circle
Award. An astonishing first play, initially presented by the Actors
Theatre of Louisville, then Off-Broadway, and then on Broadway, where
it established the author as a major voice in our theatre.
Warm-hearted, irreverent, zany and brilliantly imaginative, the play
teems with humanity and humor as it examines the plight of three young
Mississippi sisters betrayed by their passions.
"While this play
overflows with infectious high spirits, it is also, unmistakably, the
tale of a very troubled family. Such is Miss Henley's prodigious talent
that she can serve us pain as though it were a piece of cake." —NY
Times
"It has heart, wit and a surprisingly zany passion that must
carry all before it… it would certainly be a crime for anyone interested
in the theatre not to see this play." —NY Post
"From time to time a
play comes along that restores one's faith in our theatre…" —NY
Magazine
