The Odd Couple

The Odd Couple at Stephen Sondheim Theatre

Why see The Odd Couple?

They Were Roommates!

Steve Carell and John C. Reilly move in together as Neil Simon's 1965 hit returns to the Great White Way for the first time in over twenty years! Joined by an all-star cast, including Broadway favorites Laura Benanti, Kevin Del Aguila, James Monroe Iglehart, and Rob McClure, this new staging of Simon's mismatched-roommates tale also features direction from Hamilton's Thomas Kail and is produced by Kail's fellow Hamilton alum Jeffrey Seller.

On the revival and the casting, Kail said, "Neil Simon wrote one of the great American comedies, and it is an honor and a thrill to be part of this exceptional team bringing this play back to Broadway...Steve and John are two remarkable actors who can make an audience laugh uproariously one moment and move them deeply in the next."

What Is The Story?

When Felix Unger is thrown out by his wife, he finds himself in a situation that anyone who has roomed with someone can relate to, when his friend and colleague, Oscar Madison, offers to put him up. However, Felix is quickly appalled by his new living arrangement - where he is neat and somewhat uptight, Oscar is a complete slob. Can fastidious Felix learn to live with Oscar's lackadaisical attitude to housekeeping, or will these former friends come to blows?
