The abject is literally defined as the rejection of what comes of oneself of bodily fluids and bodily waste. It is also true of the dirt in the environment , dirt in bathroom , the garbage , etc. .While abjection is the reaction one shows at realizing an abject.
Annie Baker's The Flick (2013 ) portrays a trio of theatre employees, who are carrying out marginal jobs of sweeping , cleaning up the garbage left by the audience and projecting movies on screen respectively . They are underpaid and through carrying out marginal jobs , they are discarded by movie –theatre audience and thus tend to be figuratively abjects .
The aim of present paper is to analyze the abject figuratively in Annie Baker's The Flick in the light of Julia Kristeva's work ,Powers of Horror : An Essay on Abjection
