Consider This Theater Company presents The Odd Couple through July 18 at the Mills-Pate Arts Center.

The Odd Couple tells the story of Felix, a neat-freak newswriter being thrown out by his wife and moving in with his friend Oscar, a slovenly sportswriter. Despite Oscar’s careless spending, gambling and a poorly kept house he seems to enjoy life. Felix, however, seems incapable of enjoying anything.

Even when Felix tries to do so in a gentle and constructive way, his corrections and suggestions prove extremely annoying to those around him. Oscar feels compelled to throw him out after only a brief time together, though he quickly realizes that Felix has had a positive effect on him.

Showtimes are at 7:30 p.m. on Fridays, July 9 and 16, and Saturdays, July 10 and 17, and at 2 p.m. on Sundays, July 11 and 18.

The cast for The Odd Couple includes Tyson Pate, Sean Richardson, Shondell McFall, Jessica Wells, Patti Long-Lee, Sam Brewer, Danny Wells and Alex White.

The Mills-Pate Arts Center is located at 7120 Old Nashville Hwy., Murfreesboro.
