Neil Simon’s “The Odd Couple” Brings Laughter to Lemon Bay Playhouse

The classic Neil Simon comedy “The Odd Couple” opens as a group of the guys assemble for cards in the apartment of divorced Oscar Madison. And if the mess is any indication, it’s no wonder that his wife left him. Late to arrive is Felix Unger, who has just been separated from his wife. Fastidious, depressed, and none too tense, Felix seems suicidal, but as the action unfolds, Oscar becomes the one with murder on his mind when the clean freak and the slob ultimately decide to room together with hilarious results as “The Odd Couple” is born. “The Odd Couple” will run Wednesday, March 5 to Sunday, March 30 with showtimes Wednesdays to Saturdays at 7:30pm and a Sunday matinee at 2pm, at the Lemon Bay Playhouse, 96 W. Dearborn Street. Tickets are $27 and can be purchased online at LemonBayPlayhouse.com.
