The Silver Spring Penguin

Whether you celebrate Thanksgiving or not, enjoy this long weekend! Here’s what’s rocking Silver Spring:

Thursday

All day. The county observes Thanksgiving. Don’t expect county offices, courts or libraries to be open. Do expect mass-transit services to roll on holiday schedules. At least you can be thankful for free parking at county-owned garages and curbside meters.

Friday

4:00 a.m. Metro rail rolls earlier than usual to get you to those Black Friday deals. Trains run on a regular weekday schedule, so expect to pay a regular weekday fare.

8:00 p.m. Bouncing Ball Theatrical Productions presents “Cautionary Tales for Adults and The Many Adventures of Trixie Tickles”, a pair of two short musicals. Hit it at the Round House Theater (8641 Colesville Rd) for $15 per person.

8:00 p.m. The Silver Spring Stage (10145 Colesville Rd) presents “Third”, a drama by Wendy Wasserstein. Tickets are $13 to $18 each.

10:00 p.m. Get your musical-multimedia groove on at Loda, South Silver Spring’s weekly rump shaker. The party drops on Gallery Lounge (1115 East-West Hwy). Ten bucks and convincing ID get you through the door.

Saturday

3:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. Bouncing Ball Theatrical Productions presents “Cautionary Tales for Adults and The Many Adventures of Trixie Tickles”, a pair of two short musicals. Hit it at the Round House Theater (8641 Colesville Rd) for $15 per person.
