The Crackwalker

The Crackwalker is about people who live at the margins. They are violent, drunk, and thrive on toxic relationships. Some struggle with mental disabilities. The play is a disturbing and graphic exploration of urban desperation, and pulls no punches in its depictions of the people who live in this world. While some of the characters are able to escape this no man’s land, Thompson is very clear on the circumstances that doom others to endlessly repeat the cycle of abuse, exploitation and suffering.
