A comedy of the mundane, followning three underpaid movie ushers who desperately try to clean up their own messes.
The Flick follows three employees in their struggle to clean the theater, make a living, and define their lives, identities, and values.
Premiering Off-Broadway, this is a comedy of the mundane. The Flick, takes place in a Worcester County, Pennsylvania movie theater, where the employees tend to one of the last 35mm projectors in the state.
They do all the humdrum and tedious labor necessary for keeping the theater running, including toiling to clean spilled soda from the floors.
