Lunchtime Lecture: PLAZA SUITE

July 23
Wednesday at Noon

Join David Garnes as he discusses LTM’s upcoming production of PLAZA SUITE with members of the cast and creative team.

An uproarious and piercing look at love and marriage
From legendary playwright Neil Simon comes one of his most popular and celebrated plays, Plaza Suite details the misadventures of three very different couples as they face crucial moments in their respective lives all in the same hotel room in the world famous Plaza Hotel.

Karen and Sam are a long-married pair whose relationship may be headed for an early checkout. Muriel and Jesse are former high school sweethearts who seem destined for an extended stay. And Norma and Roy are the mother and father of the bride, ready to celebrate their daughter’s nuptials — if only they can get her out of the bathroom!

This beloved comedy showcases Simon at his best: witty, clever, and relentlessly funny. For a madcap evening of laughter, love, and live theatre – you can’t beat Plaza Suite!

Free and open to the public, Lunchtime Lectures offer an opportunity to learn about LTM’s productions, providing insights into the creative process, background information about the play, its production history, and the playwright, and much more about theatre and the arts. These discussions are an informal lecture style with an opportunity to ask questions after the chat.
