The Flick has been produced. I think most regional areas have seen it, though maybe not multiple productions.

I saw the Steppenwolf staging in 2016 -- it's a very good play. I think another Chicago area theater is scheduled to do a production later this season.

Most likely Steppenwolf will be the theater that eventually tackles Fairview, probably in one of their smaller theaters.

With the exception of The Coast of Utopia, every play that has gotten a Best Play Tony nomination in the last 25 years has been or is scheduled to be done in the Chicago area. Oslo is being staged by Timeline in September. However, I can't imagine any of the major Chicago regional theaters doing Gary -- the prestige theaters in Chicago just don't do toilet and/or genitalia humor. The one theater that would be able to do it justice is Hell in a Handbag, but the licensing fee may be beyond its budget.

But I don’t think it was done. I know act, Berkeley rep and theaterworks didnt do it or at least not after winning the Pulitzer.

I guess I’ll see it after all on really uncomfortable padded bench seating.
