Suite Surrender AUDITIONS
Be a part of something hilarious – come try out for our first production, Suite Surrender! Details at https://bit.ly/SuiteSurrenderAudition.
ABOUT THE SHOW
It’s 1942, and two of Hollywood’s biggest divas have descended upon the luxurious Palm Beach Royale Hotel to perform in a USO show – assistants, luggage, and legendary feud with one another in tow. Everything seems to be in order for their wartime performance… that is, until they are somehow assigned to the same suite!
Mistaken identities, overblown egos, double entendres, and a lap dog named Mr. Boodles round out this hilarious riot of a love note to the classic farces of the 30s and 40s.
