“The Intruders”, A Play About Gentrification

The good, the bad and the discussion about gentrification.

Depending on who you are, where you live and long you’ve been living there, the term “gentrification” can mean very different things.  Some good, some bad.  It’s a conversation and sometimes an argument that has been growing in DC for years.  It’s also the focus of a new play titled “The Intruders” on stage this week at Silver Spring’s Black Box Theater.  Tonight we discuss the play and the issue.
