Description

Green Thumb Theatre
Vancouver, Canada

From the company who brought the sold-out hit The Shape of a Girl to the New Vic in 2005, CRANKED is an eye-opening and compelling look at lost dreams and unrealized ambitions. With intense spoken word, edgy hip-hop flair and pulsing rhythms from a live DJ, the artistic and inventive CRANKED shares the story of Stan's spiraling descent into crystal meth addiction. Starring one-man phenomenon Kyle Cameron, CRANKED induces "raging applause, tears of understanding, hoots of approval, and standing ovations" (The Vancouver Province). More than "Just Say No," CRANKED is an award-winning theatrical depiction of a frightening new epidemic.

"This is a show that not only walks the walk, but talks the talk …Mad props." – The Toronto Star

New Vic at The Duke, The New 42nd Street’s programming initiative devoted to the exploration of socially relevant works for teenagers, is proud to present CRANKED, the story of one teen’s experiences with crystal meth. New Vic at The Duke, now in its fifth year, welcomes back Green Thumb Theatre, who brought us the series’ inaugural presentation with THE SHAPE OF A GIRL, a compelling one-woman play that explored the effects of bullying and peer pressure.

Note: The Duke on 42nd Street theater is located at 229 West 42nd Street, just steps away from The New Victory.
