Closer at Silver Spring Stage

Everything’s a version of something else. Try lying for a change, it’s the currency of the world.

Review: Orson’s Shadow at Silver Spring Stage

After gaining control of my excitement over the chance to see my first production at Silver Spring Stage, I decided to do a little exploration on the plot of their current production, Orson’s Shadow.
