WAIMEA, HI — Waimea Community Theatre is thrilled to announce its upcoming production of Neil Simon’s legendary comedic masterpiece, The Odd Couple, running for one weekend only from October 9 through October 11, 2026, at the Parker School Theatre.

The Odd Couple follows the hilarious and chaotic lives of two radically mismatched roommates: Felix Ungar, a neurotic, fastidious clean-freak, and Oscar Madison, a slovenly, cynical sports writer. Tossed together in a New York City apartment following the collapses of their respective marriages, the duo tries to coexist without driving each other completely insane.

This highly anticipated community production boasts a unique artistic twist, with local theatrical veteran T. C. Faith serving double-duty as both the show’s director and starring as the hopelessly messy Oscar Madison. Opposite T. C. Faith, Justin Henshaw takes the stage as the obsessively neat Felix Ungar, bringing to life one of the most famous comedic dynamics in American theater history.

“I’m delighted to be returning to W.C.T. with this production” said Director T. C. Faith. “The Odd Couple isn’t just a classic comedy; it’s a shining example of how American theater can weave together humor, humanity and community, and there are few people capable of crafting that as well as Neil Simon was. We have a wonderful & dedicated cast and crew who are working hard to bring this show to life, and we are eager to share it with our audience.”

Cast Members - Justin Henshaw, T. C. Faith, Robert Payesko, Garry Davis, John Sucke, J. D. Harsh, Kelly Wadlegger & Kyra Keli
