Raven Theatre Extends THE ODD COUPLE Through 8/7

By: Jun. 14, 2010

Raven Theatre announces a three-week extension of Neil Simon's The Odd Couple, the closing play of Raven's 27th season, directed by Michael Menendian.

Best friends: can't live with them, can't realize your life's regrets without them. When Felix's wife kicks him out, his recently divorced best friend, Oscar, opens his home to take him in. Reality sets in when Felix's "Mary Poppins" lifestyle destroys the laid-back vibe of Oscar's ultimate bachelor pad. A fun night with their neighbors, the Pigeon sisters, could help ease the tension or it just might light the fuse on this combustible situation. Can these two learn how to live with each other or will they drive each other berserk?

Eight shows have been added beyond the original closing date of July 18:

Friday, July 23
Saturday, July 24
Sunday, July 25
Friday, July 30
Saturday, July 31
