Penguin Rep Theatre Presents Flawless: September 26-October 19

Don’t miss the world premiere of Flawless at Penguin Rep Theatre, September 26-October 19! A playwright and a software designer set out to create the “perfect script,” but their experiment with artificial intelligence quickly becomes a battle of ideas, egos, and unexpected attraction. Sharp, funny, and timely, this new show dives into the collision of technology and creativity, exploring whether AI can truly inspire art, or simply expose the messy, human side of making it.
Performances run Thursdays at 7:30 pm; select Friday matinees at 2:00 pm; Friday evenings at 7:30 pm; Saturdays at 3:00 pm and 7:30 pm; and Sunday matinees at 2:00 pm.
The Penguin Rep Theatre is located at 7 Crickettown Road in Stony Point, New York, just 15-25 minutes up the Palisades Parkway. So close to the Bergen County border! Set your GPS to 7 Crickettown Road, Stony Point, take the Palisades Interstate Parkway, and park for free.
