The late great Neil Simon, whom passed away last year in August at the age of 91, was a playwright and comedy genius known for his works on the stage and screen alike.

The Odd Couple has ignited laughter everywhere from Broadway and film, to a legendary TV series…

With Belvo and Meyer leading the way, this is as funny an ODD COUPLE as you will likely see.

At the Jabara Flexible Theatre on the Newman University Campus, The Odd Couplewas presented by a new Wichita Theatre company called MADCAP Comedy and Improv Troupe. Spear-headed and founded by local actor Cameron Carlson, this was the first production for the troupe specially arranged by Samuel French, Incorporated.

THE ODD COUPLE, Neil Simon's standout work, is handsomely staged at Hale Center Theater Orem. Good friends become bad housemates when they find themselves separated from their spouses. Director David Morgan shows a deft ability to keep the antics at a quick pace and brings out the contrasting personalities between Oscar and Felix.

The Odd Couple is the late Neil Simon's finest and funniest comedy, and a delicious romp for all. The play won five Tony nominations and four Tony Awards when it debuted on Broadway in 1965, and lived on in film and television adaptations for many years. The hilariously miss-matched apartment mates -divorced and slovenly Oscar and obsessively neat Felix (whose marriage has just dissolved) - are joined by Oscar's poker buddies and a tempting pair of sisters, Cecily and Gwendolyn, who live upstairs. As the NY Times review of the original production stated, 'There is scarcely a moment that is not hilarious.'

The Odd Couple by Neil Simon, directed by Bob Paisley now playing at the Warwick Theatre, home of the Metropolitan Theatre Ensemble, showing September 13-23, 2018 at the MET's recently acquired venue.  The Warwick is at 3927 Main St, KCMO 64111.
