Cranked

Stan a.k.a. "definition" was a rising freestyle MC who lost it all because of his meth habit. He confronts his demons as he preps for an upcoming competition without the "fix" that has dominated his life. Memories of the highs and the rush of music all collide as he struggles to recapture what he once had. Using spoken word and hip-hop, playwright Michael P. Northey and Green Thumb Theatre offer a dramatic exploration of addiction and drug culture. All music is original and created for Cranked by Canadian hip-hop artists Kyprios and Stylust.

Note: Crystal Meth Addiction is hitting all cities targeting all ages. A documentary about the problem of Crystal Meth addiction in Downtown Ottawa aired this season on W-5. A must see for all!
