Odd Couple

I saw a fun production of Neil Simon's The Odd Couple.

It was odder yet, because it was the "female version" of the play. With Florence instead of Felix and Olive instead of Oscar.

I was struck by how much dialog Simon had obviously rewritten to make this version work.

It must have been hard to recast the tale
so each male was female and each female male.
