The Odd Couple’s female version coming to Aylmer audiences

Aylmer Community Theatre Company (ACT Co) is well into rehearsals for their coming production of The Odd Couple/female version. 

Neil Simon’s revision of his hugely successful play, The Odd Couple, sees the lead characters transformed into Olive Madison and Florence Unger. Olive and their group of girlfriends are enjoying their weekly Trivial Pursuit night in Olive’s messy and ill-equipped apartment. As the game continues, Florence arrives, fresh from being dumped by her husband.

ACT Co will be performing the comedy at Symmes-D’Arcy McGee High School, April 5-7 at 7:30 pm. 

The Company has been bringing English theatre to Aylmer audiences for over ten years. Commented one regular, “Imagine, live theatre, right here in Aylmer! This play will appeal to everyone, so put a group of friends together and come out to support the Company and our English-language culture.” 

The drama promises to have audiences rolling in the aisles, and early reservations are advised – go to actcompany.ca. Tickets are $20 for adults and $12 for students. There may be tickets available at the door.
