The Body Heat star, 53, stunned the cast and crew of play Crimes Of The Heart when she passed out mid-scene at the Laura Pels Theatre, according to the New York Daily News.

A source says, "She had to be helped home."

Turner suffered with alcohol abuse in the past before entering rehab after passing out drunk on stage during a 2002 Broadway performance of The Graduate.

However, a theatre source has quashed concerns Turner has returned to the bottle during rehearsals for Crimes Of The Heart, insisting, "I've never seen her drink at theatre."

Turner has won high critical praise for her direction of the southern drama about the funny/sad relationships among sisters.
