JLT to stage ‘The Odd Couple, Female Version’

“The Odd Couple, Female Version” by Neil Simon is the next Joplin Little Theatre production, beginning March 26.

Unger and Madison are at it again! Florence Unger and Olive Madison, that is, in Neil Simon’s hilarious contemporary comic classic: the female version of “The Odd Couple.” Instead of the poker party that begins the original version, Ms. Madison has invited the girls over for an evening of Trivial Pursuit. The Pidgeon sisters have been replaced by the two Constanzuela brothers. But the hilarity remains the same.

Shelly Dunn directs the cast, including Jennifer Jones as Olive Madison and Peyton Napier as Florence Unger.

The shows will be at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, March 26, through Saturday, March 29; and at 2:30 p.m. Sunday, March 30.

Ticket prices are $18 for adults and $15 for senior citizens and students. They can be purchased by calling (417) 623-3638 or online at www.joplinlittletheatre.org.

Joplin Little Theatre is at 3009 W. First St., Joplin. Office hours are 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Monday through Thursday.
