Prepare for an evening of uproarious fun! Neil Simon, the
THE ODD COUPLE (Female Version) by Neil Simon
directed by Lawrence R. Houbre, Jr.
Prepare for an evening of uproarious fun! Neil Simon, the Pulitzer, Emmy, and Tony Award-winning master of theatre, revisits his beloved 1965 hit with The Odd Couple (Female Version). Experience the hilarious clash of personalities between two utterly different women, leading to both laugh-out-loud comedy and genuinely heartwarming moments. This sharp, witty play about the ultimate mismatched roommates will have you smiling and laughing long after the curtain falls.
Neil Simon’s 1985 revision of his hugely successful 1966 play, The Odd Couple, sees the lead characters transformed into Olive Madison and Florence Unger. Olive and their group of girlfriends are enjoying their weekly Trivial Pursuit night in Olive’s messy and ill-equipped apartment. As the game continues, Florence arrives, fresh from being dumped by her husband. Fearful that the neurotic Florence might attempt suicide, Olive invites her to move in as her roommate. However, Olive and Florence have very different personalities. Where Olive is messy, untidy, and unconcerned about the state of her apartment, Florence is obsessively clean, tidy, and obsessed with hygiene. Olive’s easy-going outlook on life soon clashes with Florence’s highly-strung neurotic tendencies, testing their friendship to the limit. When Olive organizes a double-date with the Costazuela brothers, their differences come to a head and sparks fly.
