Suite Surrender at 1st Stage Theatre

Suite Surrender

1st Stage Theatre
1524 Spring Hill Road Tysons

It's 1942, and the luxurious Palm Beach Royale Hotel is under siege as two of Hollywood's biggest and neediest divas vie for the same suite. Mistaken identities, overblown egos, double entendres, and one pampered little lap dog round out this fall-down-laughing riot of a comedy. It’s an all-out love note to those wonderful farces of the 30s and 40s.

"... Directed by Rex Daugherty, this laugh-a-minute comedy keeps the blunders rolling as the characters bungle about trying to keep world war III from exploding between two super-star queens. With an outrageously comical cast and some stellar set and costume designs this high-end farce is a hilarious adventure that will leave you begging for more."

"... Farce is a difficult genre to pull off, as it calls for intense speed and precision, but with Rex Daugherty directing, this "Suite Surrender" races its way to a delightful, raucous conclusion."

"... The entire cast was engaging and seemed absorbed in the happenings on the set even when not the focal point of the action. Not only was the fight choreography by Casey Celeba performed expertly, but the gorgeous set itself was well designed by Steven Royal. Dan Iwaniec’s costumes were fabulous, the blue dresses worn by the divas contrasted nicely with everyone else on stage."

1st Stage’s production of Suite Surrender is a master’s class in how to construct a farce and make it work on stage. Slamming doors, mistaken identity, physical comedy, fast-paced action, and ever building comic tension are all present in the work.
