Posted: 3/25/15 at 4:05pmI know “The Flick” is supposed to open late May at Barrow Street Theatre, but I haven’t heard anything more about it since that announcement at the beginning of the year. Anyone have any news on this or when tickets might go on sale?

I wrote to the box office last week and they confirmed that it was indeed coming in May, but they still did not have an on-sale date for tickets. They suggested that I continue to monitor their website, or join their email list to be notified (link below). According to their email the first performance is scheduled for May 7, 2015. No other details about the production. Hope that helps.

Saw it last night and loved it. I feel a few of those extended times where nobody speaks could have been a bit shorter but all in all a good play and great cast.
Just give the world Love.

Just caught this again and I think I enjoyed the play more now than I did at PH. Great to see an actual Off-Broadway play running. The current cast is very good.

I agree. Saw it a few weeks ago and the current cast is great, Kyle Beltran especially.

I most enjoyed Mr. Maher's performance. Again, they were all good!

I sadly didn't get to see Matthew Maher but I did enjoy his work a lot in Mr. Burns a few seasons back.

Uncageg, you saw Danny Wolohan, not Matt Maher. Maher left a few weeks ago.

Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe."

Mr. Wolohan has a very different presence, but he's just as compelling. More of an older bro, stuck.

I saw this a couple months ago and I loved it. Granted, when I hear that a play/movie has little to no plot and nothing happens... I know it's going to be me all over. I'm also a big movie geek and felt like I knew those characters too well. I'd read about the long pauses before seeing it, and honestly didn't notice any during the show. Considering it was three hours, I wanted to spend more time with these characters. I really loved it. I'm sad I missed John, but I will see everything Annie Baker does in the future.

^I must have missed that announcement as well. I was under the impression he was still with the show.

I was too! I swore the press releases announcing the other cast changes mentioned Maher would still be with the show.

Posted: 10/26/15 at 3:12pm^ They did say that, because he did stay longer than the other three. But he must have left shortly after the change, and his departure wasn't announced.

Danny took over on at the end of September.
