The Odd Couple
The Odd Couple: Two Versions of the Classic Play in Repertoire!
Both Versions by Neil Simon
Oscar & Felix ~ Plays March 23, 24, 29, 30, April 6, 7, 12, 13
America’s comic mastermind, Neil Simon, updated his classic comedy The Odd Couple in 2004, giving the trials and tribulations of Felix Unger and Oscar Madison a more modern approach. Those who love the original version will laugh all over again at the classic characters in an all-new setting. The play opens as a group of the guys assemble for cards in the messy apartment of divorced Oscar Madison. Recently separated Felix Unger arrives, fastidious and suicidal. After the clean freak and the slob decide to room together with hilarious results, Oscar becomes the one with murder on his mind.
The Odd Couple, Female Version ~ March 22, 23, 30, 31, April 5, 6, 13, 14
Instead of a poker party, messy Olive Madison has invited the girls over for an evening of Trivial Pursuit, and fastidious Florence Unger comes to share the apartment. Simon brilliantly translates his original classic, re-imagining the familiar and hilarious situations for two women who can’t possibly coexist, but somehow manage to do just that.
