Pat Sajak to star in 'The Odd Couple'

STORRS, Conn., May 23 (UPI) -- "Wheel of Fortune" host Pat Sajak and broadcast journalist Joe Moore are to star in a staging of "The Odd Couple," the Connecticut Repertory Theatre said.

The production of Neil Simon's classic comedy is to run June 21 through July 7 at the Harriet S. Jorgensen Theatre.

"Friends since their tour of duty in Vietnam, Moore and Sajak will join forces as the desperately mismatched roommates -- one sloppy and one neat -- who find themselves sharing a not-so-swinging bachelor pad after their marriages break up," a message on the company's Web site said. "Their hilarious battle of wills leads to sheer mayhem for them ... and classic laugh-out-loud comedy for us."
