Nov 2012 Plaza Suite
Mimsey,Roy, Norma and Borden
The November production of Radyr Drama Society , “Visitor from Mamaroneck” and “Visitor from Forest Hills” from “Plaza Suite” by Neil Simon, was performed at Morganstown Village Hall from Thursday to Saturday, November 22nd to 24th.
Among Neil Simon’s hits on Broadway and in the cinema, are “Barefoot in the Park”, “The Odd Couple”, “Last of the Red Hot Lovers”, and “The Sunshine Boys”.
“Plaza Suite” is a portrait of different couples successively occupying the same suite at the Plaza Hotel, New York.
The first is a funny, yet touching, story of a marriage in tatters, as the wife tries to bring back the romance on their wedding anniversary, in a suite where they spent their honeymoon, or so she thinks. The second couple, in an uproarious farce, try to get their daughter to come out of the locked bathroom, and go down to the ballroom where she is due to be married. In the process, their relationship comes under the spotlight, as disaster piles on disaster.
