Annie Baker's 2014 Pulitzer Prize-winning drama, The Flick, returns to Off-Broadway this month, directed once again by Sam Gold and featuring Alex Hanna, Louisa Krause, Matthew Maher, and Aaron Clifton Moten, reprising their acclaimed performances. Previews begin tonight, May 5, with opening night set for Monday, May 18 at the Barrow Street Theatre (27 Barrow Street, corner of Seventh Avenue), and the show will play a 16-week limited engagement through Sunday, August 30.

In a run-down movie theater in central Massachusetts, three underpaid employees mop the floors and attend to one of the last 35-millimeter film projectors in the state. Their tiny battles and not-so-tiny heartbreaks play out in the empty aisles, becoming more gripping than the lackluster, second-run movies on screen. With keen insight and a finely-tuned comic eye, The Flick is a hilarious and heart-rending cry for authenticity in a fast-changing world.
The Flick premiered at Playwrights Horizons in March 2013 and, in addition to winning the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, won its author a 2013 Obie Award for Playwriting.
The production will also reunite The Flick's original design team: David Zinn (Scenic and Costume Design), Jane Cox (Lighting Design), and Bray Poor (Sound Design).
Over the last decade, the Barrow Street Theatre has been home to some of Off-Broadway's most successful productions. Memorable past attractions include Adam Rapp's Red Light Winter; Bug, by Tracy Letts; Austin Pendleton's Orson's Shadow; Nilaja Sun's No Child; The Civilians' Gone Missing; Thornton Wilder's Our Town; Fiasco's Cymbeline; Nina Raine's Tribes; and, most recently, Duncan Macmillan's Every Brilliant Thing.
