THE ODD COUPLE by NEIL SIMON
Presented by Chaffin's Barn Dinner Theatre at Chaffin's Barn Dinner Theatre April 26-May 27, 2012 Simon's play centers on a pair of desperately mismatched roommates--one sloppy and one neat--who are arguably the most memorable pair of characters that the successful playwright has ever written. Felix Ungar, a neurotic fusspot news writer, and Oscar Madison, a slovenly sports journalist. The laughs are non-stop in this classic hit from one of America’s greatest comedy writers.
