This week on Aging in Portland, I interviewed Pat Patton, Director of The Odd Couple, and Grant Byington, the actor who plays Felix Ungar, at the Lakewood Theatre.
The Odd Couple is a fictional bromance based on Neil Simon's Broadway play in 1965. This successful play, film, and 1970s TV series is being revived on the stage at Lakewood Theatre. Pat Patton discusses the play’s co-stars: Grant Byington as the hypochondriac, fuss-budget, Felix Unger, and Don Alder as Oscar Madison, the slovenly sportswriter. (No wonder their wives kicked them out.) Can these two diverse divorced men live together? Witness their hilarious conflict on stage as they become the Odd Couple. Don’t miss this fun show!
