Neil Simon's play centers on a pair of desperately mismatched roommates--one sloppy and one neat--who are arguably the most memorable pair of characters that the successful playwright has ever written. It debuted on Broadway in 1965 and spawned an extremely successful 1968 movie and sitcom that ran for five seasons.
The play will begin previews on Oct. 4 at the Brooks Atkinson Theatre. Rehearsals are to begin on Sept. 6.
