...PLAZA SUITE proves once again that Neil Simon is a master mirthologist, as in two of three one-act plays he adroitly sketches a satire and broadly paints a farce. However, in the first play, Visitor from Mamaroneck, he achieves a new tone of rue in the poignant confrontation between a much-married duo. The skill of Director Mike Nichols and Actors George C.

To squeeze a potentially rival department store (Stix, Baer & Fuller) into their Crestwood Plaza near St. Louis, Developers Louis and Milton Zorensky erected a building on stilts above the parking lot.
