Project Synopsis
The Odd Couple (female version) - Neil Simon's revision of his hugely successful play,The Odd Couple, sees the lead characters transformed into Olive Madison and Florence Unger. Olive and their group of girlfriends are enjoying their weekly Trivial Pursuit night in Olive's messy and ill equipped apartment.As the game continues,Florence arrives, fresh from being dumped by her husband. Fearful that the neurotic Florence might attempt suicide, Olive invites her to move in as her roommate. However, Olive and Florence have VERY different personalities. Where Olive is messy, untidy and unconcerned about the state of her apartment,Florence is obsessively clean, tidy, and obsessed with hygiene. Olive's easy going outlook on life soon clashes with Florence's highly strung neurotic tendencies, testing their friendship to the limit. When Olive organizes a double date with the Costazuela brothers, their differences come to a head and sparks fly!Additional Characters
Vera: 30-50 year old sweet, spacey, and accidentally funny friend who is married to Harry.
Manola Costazuela: Male 30-50 year old, handsome, emotional Spanish romantic who lives upstairs [replacing the pigeon sisters from the original play]
Jesus Costazuela: Male 30-50 year old romantic younger brother of Manolo.
