“The cast of SUITE SURRENDER hits all the right notes and performs with perfect harmony. Each actor embodies their character with such totality of commitment that it is hard to imagine anyone else in any of the roles.”
~ Kelly Flynt – Broadway World
“SUITE SURRENDER is the perfect escape from the mundane and is 90 minutes of pure fun. Delivered by a wonderfully talented cast, it spans the comedic spectrum, from slapstick to deadpan, and is at the same time a situational comedy and, of course, the perfect farce.”
~ Greg Heilman – Heilman & Haver
Set in 1942, two of Hollywood’s biggest divas descend upon the luxurious Palm Beach Royale Hotel with their legendary, long-running feud in tow. Everything seems to be in order for their wartime performance until they are somehow assigned to the same suite. Through mistaken identities, overblown egos, and double entendres this roller-coaster of a play is a hilarious riot and a love note to the classic farces of the 30s and 40s.
“This laugh-a-minute comedy keeps the blunders rolling as the characters bungle about trying to keep World War III from exploding between two super-star queens…this high-end farce is a hilarious adventure that will leave you begging for more.” – DC Theater Arts
This show runs approximately 90 minutes and will be presented without intermission.
