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.
