Auditions for Suite Surrender by Prince George’s Little Theatre, Jan 20 & 22

Auditions for Suite Surrender by Prince George’s Little Theatre, Jan 20 & 22, 2015

“Suite Surrender”, a farce by Michael McKeever, will be PGLT’s third production of the 2014-15 season. It will be directed by John (“Jack”) Degnan.

Auditions for “Suite Surrender” will be held Tuesday, January 20, and Thursday, January 22, 2015 beginning at 7:30 pm. Callbacks, if necessary, will be held on Tuesday, January 27.

The production will run for eight performances from Friday, May 1 through Saturday, May 16, 2015 at the Bowie Playhouse.

Synopsis: It’s 1942 and two of Hollywood’s biggest divas have descended upon the luxurious Palm Beach Royale Hotel with assistants, luggage, and a legendary feud with one another in tow. Everything seems to be in order for their wartime performance 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 1930s and 40s.

Synopsis: Following the end of the Civil War, many former slaves, anxious to leave the South and the increasing disappointments and dangers of Reconstruction, took advantage of The Homestead Act and went West to build new lives for themselves and their families. Many of these homesteaders were black women who overcame tremendous odds to work their own land and make a place for themselves in an often harsh and forbidding environment. Set in 1898, FLYIN’ WEST is the story of some of these African-American female pioneers who settled, together, in the all-black town of Nicodemus, Kansas. “Pearl Cleage’s FLYIN’ WEST…[is] a real crowd pleaser, and its characters have humor and vitality…Cleage [is] a natural-born storyteller…” —Washington Post.

The age-old question: What if a man’s best friend is a six-foot-tall invisible rabbit?
