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. Currently in previews, 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.

Tickets to The Flick are available by visiting www.smarttix.com, calling 212-868-4444, or visiting the Barrow Street Theatre box office (27 Barrow Street, opens 1pm daily). During previews, tickets for Tuesday - Thursday performances at 7:30pm, Friday at 8pm, Saturday at 2:30pm and 8pm, and Sunday at 2pm are priced at $55, with performances Sunday evening at 7:30pm priced at $45. Beginning May 29, Tuesday through Sunday matinee performances are priced at $75, with Sunday evenings priced at $59. Student tickets are also available for $25 the day of the performance via www.smarttix.com or the box office. $25 student tickets are limited to one ticket per student ID.

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.
