LAURA GORDON
makes her MAINSTAGE directing debut in this Neil
Simon classic with a twist. Following the
success of the 1965 Broadway smash, THE ODD COUPLE,
Neil Simon took the roles of Felix and Oscar (the
neat, and the not-so-neat room-mates...following
both of their divorces) and reversed the
genders, coming up with yet another hit...the
"female" version. This script, by Simon, is
virtually the same, but the roles are reversed.
"Felix & Oscar" become "Florence & Olive".
There are some other interesting twists as
well...but you'll need to purchase a ticket to find
out about them...so come enjoy our second play of
the season. |
