Recommendations of Silver Spring

  • Donald Loftus: Silver Spring

    A deeply moving and thoughtfully constructed play, Silver Spring blends humor, memory, and family tension with remarkable sensitivity. Matthew Freeman’s writing is sharp, intimate, and emotionally honest, capturing the complexity of caregiving, distance, and love. The shifting perspectives and layered storytelling create a powerful, resonant portrait that lingers long after the final moment.

    What an incredible work. Matthew put his life and heart on the page with such sincerity, honestly investigating how the center can hold in a family of disparate people. He writes about the roles and responsibilities we have for each other in our families and vulnerably reveals the wounds inflicted, self-inflicted, and received in trying to live a life both connected and disconnected from those closest to us.

    What a great play about such an intimate subject. I hope this play gets produced with all the resources it needs.

    Beautiful play. Sad, painful, funny. Will make an excellent night of theater.
