The Odd Couple By KIMBERLY POORE The Texas Repertory Theatre Co. makes light of the social dysfunction, commonly referred to as divorce.
The Texas Rep launched its spring season with the classic comedy from Pulitzer-prize winning playwright Neil Simon, the hilarious and familiar production of “The Odd Couple.” The play featured performances by the theatre founders Steven Fenley and Craig Miller. The duo portrays the mismatched roommates Oscar and Felix.
The familiar music of the memorable sitcom started a cleverly cast adaption of the classic. It maintained the attention of audience members of all ages.
The audience roared constantly with laughter as the Rep pair played off each other’s chemistry. There was nothing ‘missed at all by the twosome’s presentation of the recognizable characters Felix and Oscar.
Texas Rep fans will be pleased with the familiar cast performances, some new faces and the directorial debut of Texas Rep company member, Joshua Estrada.
If Miller’s comic acting performance wasn’t enough, his physical humor was fantastic and well worth seeing.
The production is definitely a must for north side theatre fans.
“The Odd Couple” is schedule to run until Feb. 22. 
Repertory Theatre is in its second year of providing the northwest community professional theater. Season tickets, as well as individual performance sales are available. To purchase tickets contact The Texas Repertory Theatre Co. at 281-583-7573 or visit online at www.texasreptheatre.org.
