The Flick by Annie Baker
 

Winner of the 2014 Pulitzer Prize for Drama, Annie Baker’s internationally celebrated masterpiece is coming to Sydney from the producers of Dry Land and The Aliens.

Outhouse Theatre Co & The Seymour Centre present

THE FLICK

By Annie Baker
Directed by Craig Baldwin

5 - 16 April
Reginald Theatre, Seymour Centre

Set in a run-down Massachusetts movie theatre, three underpaid employees sweep up popcorn and attend to one of the last 35 millimetre film projectors in the state.

The Flick magically exposes the souls of lonely people in danger of being left behind in our new, digitised age. A hilarious and heart-rending cry for authenticity in a fast-changing world.

  • Hamlet | Sh!tfaced Shakespeare
    Hamlet | Sh!tfaced Shakespeare
    This is not your dear old Grandmother’s Hamlet, it is your drunk Uncle’s, who remembers every Monty Python episode by heart.
  • Dancing at Lughnasa | New Theatre
    Dancing at Lughnasa | New Theatre
    A gifted embroider of words, Friel combines soft lyricism and hard meaning in his play, a tragical comical historical pastoral on a spree and spoiling for a spirited spar.
  • Retrograde | Melbourne Theatre Company
    Retrograde | Melbourne Theatre Company
    The script is based on a true story, although this dramatisation can feel somewhat contrived, with important assertions not interrogated, and credibility stretched as a result.
  • The Glass Menagerie | Melbourne Theatre Company
    This Glass Menagerie is top shelf, and while blessed with an extraordinary cast and the highest of production values, it will not meet with everyone’s measure of how this play should be staged.
  • The First Murder | Pinchgut Opera
    The First Murder | Pinchgut Opera
    In the care of Pinchgut Opera’s director, Erin Helyard, this music, formulaic as it indeed is in some respects, sprang off the page into an experience rich in emotions.
