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.

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.
