THEATRE + COMEDY

Pearland Theatre Guild presents The Odd Couple (Female Version), running June 22 - July 8, 2012. Directed by Cheryl D. Loudd.

Come join us at the Pearl Theater for a night of fun as we put on The Odd Couple! When a slob and a stickler for detail decide to room together after a night of Trivial Pursuit, hilarity ensues and the two friends and everyone they know are taken on a wild ride they won't soon forget!

Neil Simon's famous update of his contemporary classic starts with a group of women friends playing their regular game of Trivial Pursuit. This week, they meet at the apartment of Olive Madison, a divorcee who freely admits to being a slob:"I leave a mess when I read a book." Late to arrive is Florence Unger, a stickler for detail who would try the patience of a saint, and who has unfortunately just become separated from her husband. As life would have it,the slob and the fuss-budget decide to room together -- with hilarious results!

Within days, Florence's obsessive habits start taking their toll on Olive and their friends. The only remedy Olive can think of (a pair of brothers from Barcelona) disastrously backfires, and the two women are forced to agree on one thing --even the best of friends sometimes make the worst of roommates.
