The Center Stage Players are back with their 2013 fall presentations, Roses in December by Victor Cahn and two shows in repertory “ The Odd Couple and The Female Odd Couple by Neil Simon.
Roses in December, by Victor Cahn is a play of letters. A young official in a college alumni office invites a celebrated but reclusive author to the thirty-fifth reunion of his class.
When he declines, she charmingly prods him, and thereby begins a witty and revelatory correspondence that becomes part mystery, part memory and part romance.
Opening September 6 and running through September 15 shows will be 8pm September 6,7,13 and 14 2pm September 8 & 15.
Tickets are $18 for adults, $15 Seniors and $10 Children 12 and Under.
In The Odd Couple, Oscar is a slob, but thats the least of his problems! His apparently traumatic divorce has cauterized his ability to love. When he invites a group of the guys over for a game of cards, he meets Felix, who is meticulous, tense and recently divorced.
