Wrecked

April 2008

By Edmonton playwright Chris Craddock

In “Wrecked,” three sets of characters weave in and out of each others’ story lines, offering insights into their encounters with alcohol and drug abuse. Lyle and Buddy are two 16-year-olds dealing with their own curiosity about alcohol and drugs by putting together a video on the subject for a local contest. Lyle is also coping with his alcoholic mother and the responsibility he feels towards protecting Suzy, his 10-year-old sister. In another story line, Sharon, mother to Lyle and Suzy, attempts to deal with family problems through alcohol and her relationship with a local bartender.
