London Suite

By Neil Simon

 6th March - 27th March 2004

 

SYNOPSIS

Neil Simon's London Suite tells four different stories all taking place in the same suite of a London hotel.

Very much in the tradition of his earlier plays "Plaza Suite" and "California Suite", the stories combine drama and comedy laced with Neil Simon's classic witty and sharp dialogue. The four stories told in the play include a cautionary tale of daylight robbery and deceit, a mother's unforgettable romantic interlude, the poignant reunion of an estranged couple and the hilarious antics of the guest who lost his Wimbledon tickets.
