Unger and Madison are at it again! Florence Unger and Olive Madison, that is, in Neil Simon’s hilarious contemporary comic classic: the female version of The Odd Couple.

The action unfolds with hilarious results.

Making God Laugh follows one typical American family over the course of thirty years’ worth of holidays.

The empty-nester parents contend with their own changes, too as old family rituals are trotted out and ancient tensions flare up. As time passes, the family discovers that despite what we may have in mind, we often arrive at unexpected destinations.
