💔 ON THE HARMFUL EFFECTS OF CRACK COCAINE 💥

Set in a Narcotics Anonymous meeting the play follows a jittery, self-appointed “guest lecturer” who is supposed to deliver a talk about addiction — but instead spirals layers of shame, love, and regret, revealing a man desperate to find meaning in the wreckage of his life. Blending physical comedy with moments of piercing vulnerability, the performance transforms Chekhov’s 19th-century satire into a contemporary tragicomedy about recovery, self-delusion, and the human need to be heard. Alternately absurd, heartbreaking, and hopeful, On the Harmful Effects of Crack Cocaine invites the audience to laugh, cringe, and ultimately empathize with one man’s search for redemption.
