If theatre can cure midlife crisis, you'll find the doc in Suite 719
A comic satire, the performance is set in Suite 719 of the Plaza Hotel in New Delhi. Presented by Dionysius Productions, it is an adaptation and combination of two plays Plaza Suite and Last of the Red Hot Lovers written by the brilliantly witty American playwright Neil Simon.
In the three-act play, stories of three different couples will be narrated one after another.
"There's pace, because all of them are wrapped up in just one hour and 20 minutes," assures Ankita Mahabir, who has co-directed the play with Rananjay Singh Bhandari. Pick what suits your situation the best, and we bet you'll find a solution in there.
Act 1
Priyam (with a weak memory) tries to replenish the spark in her marriage with Yaman (a selfish and materialistic businessman) on their second honeymoon.

Meet Marvin
Born on July 4, 1927, American playwright and screenwriter Marvin Neil Simon's plays have been widely performed throughout the world. Though he's a comic writer, two of his works Eugene Trilogy and The Sunshine Boys take a serious note of 20th century Jewish-American experiences.u00a0
