Annie Baker's Pulitzer Prize-winning play THE FLICK is making its DC area premiere in Signature Theatre's intimate ARK Theatre, March 1 - April 17. Signature Theatre recently released a video for the production - watch it below!

The production includes Evan Casey (Signature's Sunday in the Park with George, Really Really) as Sam, Laura C. Harris (Signature's Tender Napalm) as Rose, Thaddeus McCants (NYMF's Central Avenue Breakdown) as Avery and William Vaughan (Round House's Ironbound) as Skylar/Dreaming Man.

The creative team includes Scenic Design by James Kronzer; Costume Design by Frank Labovitz; Lighting Design by Andrew Cissna; Sound Design by Eric Shimelonis; Production Stage Manager Julie Meyer; and Production Assistant Sophia Lewin Adams.

Set in the popcorn-strewn, empty aisles of a crumbling Massachusetts movie theater, The Flick exposes the surprising tenderness and comedy in the everyday. Spilled soda on the floor. Leftover food wrappers stashed in the seats. Three minimum wage employees perform the humdrum labor necessary to keep one of the last 35 millimeter projectors running. Through seemingly small conversations about movie actors, broom techniques and weekend plans, the characters divulge heartbreak, hopes and a compelling story all their own.
