CONWAY — Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning “The Shadow Box,” the latest production from M&D at the Eastern Slope Playhouse Inn, is a rumination on life and death that is sad, but also joyful and uplifting.
A shadow box is an enclosed glass-front display containing objects presented in a thematic grouping with artistic or personal meaning. So, how does that relate to Michael Cristofer’s “The Shadow Box,” a play focusing on three terminally ill patients living out their final days in cottages at a large hospital?
