The Marco Players – Presents: “Plaza Suite” ~ Nov. 7th – Nov. 25th
Marco Players’ “Plaza Suite” is about what happens in the lives of 3 different couples in Suite 719 at the Plaza Hotel. Act one opens with Karen Nash reserving the Suite to celebrate her 24th anniversary. Karen is trying to put a spark in her failing marriage. But her husband Sam has his own plans. In the second vignette, Jesse Kiplinger, ex-movie producer, tries to put the moves on his old flame Muriel Tate. The third and final vignette is the story of Roy and Norma Hubley who try to persuade their nervous daughter Mimsey to leave the hotel bathroom in which she has locked herself on her much-anticipated wedding day. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll just love this classic of classic Neil Simon show!
