Gloucester Stage Presents "The Flick" Winner of the 2014 Pulitzer Prize for Drama By Annie Baker Directed by Bridget Kathleen O'Leary Aug 20-Sep 12 Tickets $28 $1 Tickets for Ages 25 and Under. Cash only on day of show. 7:30 PM Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays 2 PM Saturday and Sunday About the Play 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. Winner of the 2014 Pulitzer Prize for Drama. Strong language and some adult situations. Why It's for You Remember the first time you got up the courage to tell someone you loved them? Can you still remember that one person you never told? Or the first time you stood up for a belief? The Flick portrays a stage of life you've been through—or are in right now. A time of finding your identity and purpose, figuring out your future, and experiencing setbacks and disappointments. A time of searching for a better life without quite knowing at times how to achieve success or how to overcome failure.
