New York City
Recognizing The Odd Couple as a magical place to explore the relationship between liberty and tyranny, Theater Oobleck returns to Oscar Madison’s apartment. When a time-traveling tourist on a prehistoric safari accidentally kills a butterfly, the Odd Couple’s poker table becomes the battleground for human civilization. The new play by Jeff Dorchen takes Neil Simon’s most famous play into Tom Stoppard territory in this examination of free will in a society where the super-privileged can redesign the fabric of time and space.
