ABOUT CRACK

CRACK, created in 2005 by Chris Farris, Karl Jones, and Shea Van Horn, is a non-profit theater collaborative that is best described as a "low budget mess of stage and screen." CRACK variety shows combine live performance, videos, and audience participation, and are hosted by a potty-mouthed drag queen named Summer Camp.

The unique events draw a cross-section of Washington's communities and provide an opportunity for local LGBT and LGBT-friendly artists, performers, and designers who have fallen through the "cracks" of traditional theater to showcase their hidden (and sometimes questionable) talents. CRACK has carved out a unique niche in DC's performance scene, having produced cabaret shows and short films that have been described as "irreverent," "over-the-top," "raunchy," and "sophomoric."

CRACK only produces a few shows each year at TOWN in Washington, DC. Don't miss them! Upcoming show schedule:

  • SAT SEPT 11 & SUN SEPT 12
  • SAT DEC 4 & SUN DEC 5

CRACK is a non-profit corporation and has applied for 501(c)3 status with the IRS. The law firm DCBA Law provided pro bono legal services to support CRACK's incorporation. DCBA Law counsels small businesses and nonprofits at all stages of development. The firm's practice areas also include domestic relations and estate planning for non-traditional couples. CRACK thanks DCBA Law for all their help and support.
