Rough Magic presents Plaza Suite at An Grianán Theatre

"Sets the town laughing" The New York Times



One of Neil Simon's most popular and celebrated plays, Plaza Suite details the misadventures of three very different couples facing crucial moments in their lives - all set in the same room in New York's world-famous Plaza Hotel.



Neil Simon is one of America's most popular dramatists, author of the classics The Odd Couple and Brighton Beach Memoirs. Plaza Suite showcases Simon at his best – witty, sophisticated and deliciously funny.



Cast includes: Karen Ardiff, Stephen Brennan, Paul Curley, Darragh Kelly, Mark Lambert, Eleanor Methven and Ali White.
