Description
Winner of the Chalmers Play Award. Stuck charts the roller-coaster odyssey of Jack, a twentysomething would-be actor is search of sex, drugs, and cash. As Jack wanders the streets of Toronto, his series of wild encounters include nuns on the make, Mormons on the hustle, venal directors, and a host of venereal and utterly unforgettable characters.
