I have never seen a bad production here. The acting is always at least good and the plays are often provocative. I see maybe two or three a season. Ticket prices are very affordable esp compared with downtown theaters. Parking is chancy on the Colesville Rd side of the shopping center, easier in back. Access looks difficult for persons who dont do well on stairs, so call first to see if mgmt can help.
A really great community theater that offers a very eclectic mix of shows, as well as great opportunities to get into the acting or backstage scene if you wish. Ive been in five productions so far, directed one, and attended more than I can count. I thoroughly enjoyed being involved in the shows and getting to meet so many wonderful people, as well as contributing to the arts community. And all the shows Ive seen have been really quite good! For such an affordable price, you get a great deal! (FYI: If you agree to usher a show, you get to see it for free.)The theater itself is very intimate and theres not a bad seat in the house (it seats around 120). It can be a little hot in the summer if they decide to turn the A/C off (its loud and can drown out the actors sometimes) so dress in layers. Same goes for it being cold in the winter. There is plenty of parking available in front and behind the shopping center where the theater is housed, but if you cant find any, you can always park on the street in the neighborhood directly behind the shopping center. While it is not metro accessible, there are a few busses that drop off directly by the theater. If youre looking for a place to grab a drink before or after the show, across the street is Four Corners Pub. Definitely worth checking out.If youd like to be in a show or help with ushering, backstage, lighting, sound, etc. check out their website and facebook page.
Great little theater with incredible acting talent. The staff is incredibly kind and welcoming of all people/ages/races/identities/etc. The theater is underground, so you may want to call ahead if you have mobility issues.A few things to consider when planning your night: The place isnt metro-accessible, but there is a bus stop nearby. Parking is free behind the shopping center; use the covered walkway next to the CVS. The snack bar is limited and doesnt serve alcohol. There are only a few restaurants in walking distance, even fewer have a bar. (My date and I tried Red Maple before the last play we went to and were disappointed.)
Very interesting stage setup with audience on two sides. Consistently puts on good productions with a solid cast.
Cozy little theatre with diverse, thought-provoking shows! Love coming here!
Excellent community theater. Some plays are better than others but nothing is bad, and what shines really shines. Staff is super nice as well.
Ive been attending shows there for 15 years. Very high quality productions.
I stage managed a show at Silver Spring Stage, and it is such an interesting space - perfect because everything you need to produce a show is right at your fingertips. The space is actually located underground, and is an intimate theatre space. Great place to see community theatre if youre in Baltimore or in D.C.
Very good talent!
Nice spot for smaller scale, local theater acts. I saw both the Christmas Carol and Arabian Nights here and enjoyed both. Even though it has the community theater vibe both plays had talented actors/singer/musicians on the professional level.The theater itself has great seating and even sells cheap drinks and snacks during intermission. It is a little tricky to find; located between the CVS and Bank of America on the Coleville Rd side of the strip mall. Recommend parking behind the building as the small lot out front is usually full.
Community theatre that could easily compete with the professional theatres in downtown DC.
Good
