It's 1942 and the luxurious Palm Beach Royale Hotel is under siege as two of Hollywood's biggest divas -- who just happen to despise each other -- vie for the same luxury suite. Mistaken identities, overblown egos, double entendres, and one pampered little lap dog all crash together in Florida playwright Michael McKeever's show-business valentine to those hysterical old farces of the 1930's and 1940's. Great fun for everyone
