After teaming up successfully last fall in David Mamet's American Buffalo, the longtime Gainesville duo decided to try something completely different and set all seriousness aside. "This is a play about two guys who are friends who learn to hate each other and it brings them closer together," says McShane. "And Scot and I know guys just like that." "My sentiments exactly," Davis adds, "and I couldn't disagree more." Like American Buffalo, which turned the Civic Media Center into Don's Resale Shop, this Odd Couple will be like spending a weekend at Oscar's apartment. There will be a poker game in progress when you arrive at the Eden Dinner Playhouse, which is what the boys are calling Expressions Academy, the charter school just south on 441 at 5408 SW 13th Street. The Odd Couple is a benefit for the school, which uses the arts as the basis of education. The Odd Couple Thursday and Friday at 8pm The Odd Couple by Neil Simon, Thursday, & Friday at 8pm, & Saturday at 2pm, March 21–29, 2008, Eden Dinner Playhouse, 5408 SW 13th Street 352–376–4008
