  • “CRITIC’S PICK. HILARIOUS AND TOUCHING. Annie Baker, one of the freshest and most talented dramatists to emerge Off Broadway in the past decade, writes with tenderness and keen insight. Her writing is a great blessing to performers: The Flick draws out nakedly truthful and unadorned acting. This lovingly observed play will sink deep into your consciousness.”

  • “Funny, heartbreaking, sly, and unblinking. The Flick may be the best argument anyone has yet made for the continued necessity, and profound uniqueness, of theater. ”

  • “Ms. Baker is a master miniaturist chasing big themes — love and loyalty; kindness and cruelty; fantasy and reality. As in The Aliens and Circle Mirror Transformation, the dialogue is UNCANNILY, YOU-ARE-THERE AUTHENTIC.”

    — Joe Dziemianowicz, NY Daily News
  • “ANNIE BAKER AND SAM GOLD ARE HOT TO THE TOUCH AND STILL TURNING OUT MUST-WATCH WORK. The amazing Matthew Maher plays Sam with unnerving honesty. Aaron Clifton Moten is a talent-and-a-half and a real find. Louisa Krause gives a wonderfully inventive, up-yours performance.”

    — Marilyn Stasio, Variety
  • “FOUR STARS. A hypnotic, heartbreaking, micro-epic about movies and moving on. Irreducibly theatrical.”

    — David Cote, Time Out New York
  • “EXHILARATING. Sam Gold’s cast is utterly in tune at every moment.”

    — Michael Feingold, Village Voice
  • “PERFECTION. Annie Baker is a genuine original, the real thing. She follows last season's Uncle Vanya version with this bold absolutely mesmerizing comic drama.”
