Correction
The Daily would like to apologize for its negative reference to
hemophiliacs in its Christine Lavin preview which apeared in yesterday's
Arts section. It was an unintenionally tasteless remark.

By Katherine Beitner
In the Ann Arbor Civic Theatre's
production of Neil Simon's Plaza
Suite, director Ted Heusel utilizes
talented local performers to create a
fresh, updated version of this
romantic comedy.
Designer Jeff Zupan's setting of
Suite takes place in a luxurious
room in New York City's Plaza
Hotel. The set is structured in a way
that allows the audience to witness
what is happening in both suite
rooms at every point in the

performance. Fireplace, country
paintings, and pink velvet armchair
add a great authenticity to the
extravagant set.
Plaza Suite is about three
couples who stay in the hotel. Cast
members Andy Lindstrom and
Phyllis Wright open the play as
Sam and Karen, an older couple
coping with the pain and guilt of
infidelity. Wright attains some well
earned laughter in her rema:kable
execution of her role.
In the second act Jesse and
Muriel, played by Marty Smith and
Laura Atwood, participate in a frisky

game of tag as they chase after their
long gone high school romance.
Smith's charm and wit lend to his
successful portrayal of the typical
Hollywood producer.
The third act, starring Beverley
Pooley and Nancy Heusel as Roy
and Norma, is particularly
entertaining. Pooley steals the show
as he desperately pleads with his
daughter to unlock her bathroom
door and attend her own wedding.
His histrionics, especially his walk
on tile ledge of his seventh floor
room, is effective as well as
humorous.
The Ann Arbor Civic Theatre has

succeeded in chosing a play of
significance to the '80s audience.
The public can easily identify with
Plaza Suite's key issues: infidelity
and fear of commitment. This
performance is a wonderful way to
begin AACT's new season.
PLAZA SUITE is playing at the
Lydia Mendelsshon Theatre through
tomorrow night with shows at
8p.m. and an additional Saturday
matinee at 2 p.m. Tickets range
from $8-$10 and $5 for the last
rows in the balcony. The box office
is in the Mendelsshon Theatre, at the
Michigan League, open daily from
12-8 p.m.
