Between a Cock and a Hard Place Sam Stagg in association with Salmon Run Productions
About This Show
Between a Cock and a Hard Place satirizes the male compulsion to be aggressive and violent as a means of asserting masculinity. Two overly confident amateur robbers, an unyielding mob boss, and a blue collar criminal at the end of his rope collide with an innocent boy who is coerced into making a decision that will undoubtedly affect his life forever. The characters in this play comedically exemplify the toxic ways in which we define and understand masculinity. Leave your layers at home ‘cause it’s gonna get steamy in here!
