The (Female) Odd Couple

Olive is a slob and Florence is a snob – the classic play The Odd Couple is being brought to life with a female twist. Adapted by original playwright Neil Simon and directed by Simon James, it’s the story of Florence who, after her marriage collapses, moves into her friend Olive’s apartment. But with Olive the messy one and Florence a neat freak, they soon lock horns and try to run each other’s lives. At the same, two Spanish brothers living in the same apartment block are keen for a date with their downstairs neighbours. The Odd Couple is being presented by Roleystone Theatre at the Don Russell Performing Arts Centre, as part of the 2023 Armadale Arts Festival.
