Entertainment : ACT 1\'s \'Odd Couple - Female Version\' comes to Palace stage this weekend

Mandy Barker and Nancy Beckman rehearse for ACT 1's 'Odd Couple -- Female Version.'

Looking for something to give mom for Mother’s Day, or a fun evening out for yourself and a significant other? ACT I has just the ticket, no pun intended. Neil Simon’s “The Odd Couple – Female Version” is opening Thursday evening, May 9th and will run through a Sunday matinee, May 12th. Evening show times are 7:00 p.m. On Sunday, if you bring your mom, she gets in for ½ price - $5.00. So how about dinner or lunch and a play rather than a movie? You will be so glad you did.

“The Odd Couple – Female Version” is a comedy about two friends trying to live together despite very different personalities and views on housekeeping. Thrown into this situation are a group of female friends and two Spanish brothers who live upstairs. You will be laughing throughout. It is best suited to adults and older children due to some language content.

The cast of 8 includes both long time ACT I veterans and some new faces.

Come join in the fun.
