Auditions for "Oscar and Felix," the newest version of Neil Simon's classic comedy "The Odd Couple,"are scheduled for Friday and Saturday evenings from 6 until 9 and on Sunday from 4 p.m. until 7 pm.
The script, rewritten and updated by Neil Simon, calls for six men and two women.
The two main characters, Oscar Madison and Felix Unger, have become two of the most beloved comedic characters in American theater.
The supporting cast is comprised of the four card playing buddies: Murray the cop, Speed, Roy and Vinnie, each one with their own individual personality quirks.
The two women are also very distinctcharacters. They are sisters Ynez and Julia (pronounced Hoolya) Costazuela. They are from Spain and speak with a thick Spanish accent.
Scripts will be available at the auditions.
The production team and director have not determined an age range for the characters at this time.
The turnout at the auditions will determine the age range. Historically, the characters are in their 30s and 40s.
"Oscar and Felix" will run for three weeks in June at Highlands Little Theatre, opening on Friday, June 4. The auditions will be held in the Thakker Pavilion, behind the main theater.
