Unger and Madison are at it again! Florence Unger and Olive Madison, that is. This is Neil Simon’s hilarious contemporary comic classic: The Odd Couple.
This version of the renowned comedy begins with the girls meeting to play Trivial Pursuit in the apartment of Olive Madison – and if the mess is any indication, it’s no wonder her husband left her. Late to arrive is fussy Florence Unger, who, they learn, has just separated from her husband. As life would have it, fussy Florence moves in with messy Madison and the results are hilarious!
