The Odd Couple-Female Version

The sloppy and the unblemished come together in the comedic play, The Odd Couple- Female Version. Two totally different girls have to learn how to get along. Neil Simon’s The Odd Couple- Female Version is performed at Beacon Charter High School for the Arts and is directed by Jason Robert LeClair.

I also thought Mickey, Melissa, could work on her acting because I thought she was focusing more on just getting her lines said rather than really being the character.

The scene I thought was exceptional was when Olive got mad at Florence and started to run after her. Olives facial expressions were beyond amazing. Both Aria and Andrea kept their characters in such a funny scene and I thought they executed is
