‘Crimes’ and merriment

Starting Friday, the Baton Rouge Little Theatre presents a Pulitzer-prize winning play Crimes of the Heart, a story of drama, betrayal and family loyalty on the main stage. Three Mississippi sisters, the Magraths, have gathered at the family home to await news of their dying grandfather. Their troubles—from spinsterhood to failed dreams to attempted murder charges—are grave yet funny, and the trio must come to grips with them and one another. Through February 6. Tickets are $22. brlt.org
