FLEX
Prepare to hit the court in Flex — an adrenaline-packed play that richly illuminates the beautiful complexity of five members of the 1998 Lady Train high school basketball team. Inspired by the success of the WNBA, the team members dream of going pro. But before they can do so, they must first navigate the pressures of being young, Black, and female in rural Arkansas. Will their fouls offthe court tear their team apart? Or can they keep their pact to stick together through hell or high water? This powerful play by Candrice Jones celebrates the fierce athleticism of women’s basketball with all the swagger of a four-quarter game.
