The off-Broadway return engagement of Annie Baker's Pulitzer Prize-winning play, The Flick, has released production images featuring the original cast. The drama, which began previews on May 7, will open on May 28 at the Barrow Street Theatre. The return engagement will once again be directed by Sam Gold. The Flick had its world premiere off-Broadway as part of Playwrights Horizons' 2012-13 season and was remounted in 2014 at Barrow Street Theatre.

Set in a run-down Massachusetts movie theater, The Flick follows the heartbreaks, loneliness, and battles of three underpaid employees as they sweep up popcorn, mop the floors, play "Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon," and tend to one of the last 35-millimeter film projectors in the state. The production features Alex Hanna, Louisa Krause, Matthew Maher, and Aaron Clifton Moten, all of whom are reprising their originating performances.
