50% Off Tix: SF’s Hit New Play “Flex” by Candrice Jones (Mar. 26-May 2)

Written by acclaimed playwright Candrice Jones, one of the most exciting new voices in American theatre, this raw, electric new play explores resilience, identity, and the power of a team to rise together.

In a forgotten town in rural Arkansas, a high school girls basketball team fights its way toward an impossible dream: a state championship. As rivalries flare and personal struggles threaten to tear them apart, the players discover that winning takes more than talent. It takes trust, sisterhood and the courage to believe in one another.

“Critic’s Pick! A slam-dunk New York debut! Candrice Jones excels equally in sly humor and in the swift-tongued rhythms of teenage and athletic talk.” – The New York Times

“The whooping, sighing, applause and interactions of the audience make clear how sharply the play hits home.”The Daily Beast
