THE ODD COUPLE
By Neil Simon
In the comic sensation that made Neil Simon a household name, Felix finds himself tossed into the street – a martyr to marital fidelity. Oscar, a recent divorcee himself, offers his friend a place to stay. But they soon realize their differences may be too great. Petty conflicts degenerate into hysteria in this laugh-filled classic of theatrical entertainment as they realize their differences may be too great. (Produced by special arrangement with Samuel French, Inc.)

| Producer Debi Gravemann |
|
|
Debi Gravemann is the Producer for The Odd Couple. That means she does everything else from coordinating set design and construction to making sure all the behind the scenes work and effort runs smoothly. Debi has been around since the beginning of Act II, acting, directing and designing sets. One of the things that Debi likes best about being part of a theater company is the opportunity it provides for playing with her friends. Whether she's creating a character, blocking a scene or shopping at Goodwill for the perfect set piece, she always loves what she's doing. During the day Debi is a nurse and does clinical research for an ophthalmology group. She loves that, too.
