FPAC presents "The Odd Couple"

Franklin Performing Arts Company (FPAC) presents Neil Simon’s hilarious The Odd Couple on November 4 and 5 at 7:30 p.m., with a Sunday matinee on November 6 at 2:00. Directed by Aaron Andrade, FPAC’s production will be staged at THE BLACK BOX in downtown Franklin as part of the company’s 26th season.

A classic American comedy by one of the most produced playwrights of the twentieth century, The Odd Couple is an epic mismatch of personalities, as an incompatible pair of suddenly single pals becomes roommates. Thrown out by his wife, the fastidious and uptight news writer, Felix Unger, moves in with the slovenly sportswriter, Oscar Madison, recently divorced. Unsure why their marriages fell apart, the friends repeat the same mistakes with each other – with hysterical results. The Odd Couple won the 1965 Tony Award for Best Author of a Play and was a Best Play nominee. The renowned buddy tale is the original play behind the hit TV sitcom and film.

Tickets are $24. For more information or to purchase tickets, call (508) 528-3370 or visit www.FPAConline.com. The Odd Couple is presented by special arrangement with Samuel French, Inc.
