Theresa is sexy, seductive, and mentally challenged. Worshipped by her boyfriend, she turns tricks at $5, is addicted to Tim Hortons doughnuts, lies without thinking, and overflows with endless kindness, but she continues to hold on to her limitless innocence. A tough, brilliant play about Theresa and three other down-and-outers in Kingston, The Crackwalker captures the music, the dialect, and the unpretty realities of the inner-city.
