Both are divorced and need a place to stay. What could go wrong? Two suddenly single pals strain their friendship by turning into roommates and unconsciously repeating the same mistakes they made in the marriages they just left. That's how fussy photographer Felix Unger and sloppy sportswriter Oscar Madison end up sharing a New York City apartment, while fastidious Florence Unger and carefree Olive Madison navigate their own comedic challenges.Don’t miss Neil Simon’s "The Odd Couple"—double the fun, double the laughs!"There is scarcely a moment that is not hilarious." - The New York TimesMale Cast:7:30 p.m. - April 24, 26, May 22 p.m. Matinee - April 27, May 3Female Cast:7:30 p.m. April 25, May 1, May 32 p.m. Matinee April 26, May 4Note: Children under the age of 5 are not admitted to the theater.MiraCosta College Theatre on Facebook / Instagram

Grief is a universal experience, yet so many myths and misconceptions surround it. It can be isolating, confusing, and deeply personal, but it’s also something we don’t have to navigate alone. This workshop takes an educational approach to debunk common grief myths while creating space for personal reflection.What to expect:We’ll open our time together with a bit of grounding breathwork, and a guided meditation to help us sense where we may be storing emotions in our bodies. Then, we’ll settle in as Clinical Psychologist Heidi Rodenberger, Psy.D., explores common grief myths and coping strategies:Understanding Grief: Moving beyond common beliefs —what grief really looks like in different situations.Debunking Grief Myths: Why “just give it time” and “stay busy” may not be the best advice.Healthy vs. Unhealthy Coping Mechanisms: Practical self-care strategies to navigate loss.Please bring a journal. After Dr. Heidi’s talk, we’ll take time to reflect and write about how grief myths have shaped our experiences and how we can use this insight to support our well-being. We’ll close with a brief group discussion for those who wish to share—participation is always optional!This gathering is a judgment-free, open-hearted space for learning, sharing, and finding connection in the realities of grief. Whether you’re actively grieving, supporting someone who is, or simply curious about the topic, you are welcome here.We look forward to seeing you!Questions?
