Flicker Theatre & Bar - Review - Downtown Athens - Athens Ga - The Infatuation

"The Athens art scene teems with comedians, and musicians, and each sect of the creative population has its own hub. Downtown’s Flicker is a haven for performers of all types. Split down the middle, one side is the bar itself, decked out with a giant settee, board games, and free Old Bay-spiced popcorn. The other side, hidden behind a curtain, hosts open mic comedy nights, film screenings, and all sorts of acts. After a hilarious (or hilariously bad) stand-up set, grab a refreshing housemade sangria or any of the excellent cocktails, which are elaborately drawn on the chalkboard above the bar. We dig the gin-based Jolene and the Red Wedding with bourbon and Cheerwine, which is about as Southern as it gets. photo credit: Sarah Newman photo credit: Sarah Newman photo credit: Sarah Newman Pause Unmute" - Delaney Tarr
