The House of Blue Leaves

Silver Spring Stage
10145 Colesville Road Silver Spring

A brilliant play, beautifully fashioned, sometimes wacky and sometimes sad, combines hilarity, poignancy, outrageousness, and tragedy by one of America's finest playwrights: John Guare. A songwriter with visions of glory toils by day as a zookeeper and by night sings at piano bars in Queens, New York, where he lives with his wife. Meanwhile, downstairs lives his mistress. Chaos ensues one day when the Pope makes his first visit to the city; the songwriter's soldier son Ronny goes AWOL; an old school chum, now a successful Hollywood producer, shows up with his starlet girlfriend in tow; and a group of nuns all descend on the apartment. See this enchanting, zany farce at the Silver Spring Stage.
