The Odd Couple (Female Version): Non-Union, Volunteer

Audition Non-Union

The Odd Couple (Female Version) centers around Olive Madison and Florence Unger, divorced women who become roommates.  The play opens with Olive Hosting a game night for friends in Olive's messy apartment when Florence arrives, freshly separated from her husband.  The comedic tension arises from their contrasting personalities:  Olive is laid-back and disorganized, while Florence is uptight and meticulous.  As they navigate their differences, the play explores the themes of friendship, compatibility and the challenges of cohabitation.
