Neil Simon three-part comedy play, following three starkly different couple’s relationships as they each spend a night in NYC’s Plaza Hotel suite #719

What's Plaza Suite Like?

The Plaza Suite is a three act comedy play that follows three different couples during each of their stays at New York City’s famous Plaza Hotel, when it actually was still a hotel, back in the 1960’s.

Specifically, each of the couples stay in suite #719.

Act one follows a not-so-happily married couple who are now middle aged. They are revisiting the suite they first honeymooned in, as an attempt by the wife to have them fall back in love with each other, but their stay ends in tears.
Act two follows a funny and complicated meeting between a hot-shot movie producer and his old flame, who is now a suburban housewife and is initially wary of meeting him again.
Act three centers around an older, married couple on their eldest daughter's wedding day. The bride-to-be is in a nervous panic, so she locks herself in the suite's bathroom and refuses to leave, despite the coaxing from her parents. This act is filled with some absurd slapstick comedy and the couples various frantic attempts to convince their daughter to attend her own wedding. While the wedding guests start to turn up in the hotel’s lobby, mayhem is developing at the The Plaza Hotel suite #719.

All three of the couples are performed by Mathew Broderick and Sarah Jessica Parker.

Plaza Suite on Broadway Background

Plaza Suite is a multi-Tony Award nominated comedy play written by the legendary American comic and play-writer, Neil Simon. Simon wrote the original script for the Broadway show in 1967 and the show made its Broadway debut in 1968 at the Plymouth Theatre (now known as the Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre).

While Simon was writing this show, his fame was at its peak with four of his other plays being performed all at the same time in other Broadway theatres, namely; The Star-Spangled Girl, The Odd Couple, Sweet Charity and Barefoot in the Park. Simon is the only playwright who had a Broadway theatre named after him while he was still living.

For this first Broadway revival, the actors are Mathew Broderick and Sarah Jessica Parker, who have been married in real life for over 20 years and are each Tony Award winners themselves.

Parker performed on Broadway for the first time in The Innocents when she was just 11 years old, but Parker’s most notable work is from acting in the famous HBO series, Sex and the City, where she played the protagonist Carrie Bradshaw. It was this show that won her two Primetime Emmy Awards and four Golden Globe Awards.
Broderick is most well known for his role as Ferris Bueller, in the cult classic coming-of-age movie Ferris Bueller's Day Off in 1986, when he received his first big movie break. Since then he has starred in various Broadway and Hollywood projects, most notably in The Producers with Nathan Lane on Broadway from March 2001 to April 2002. He also appeared in the 2005 film of the same name.
