ODD COUPLE: An Evening with Noel Coward and Harold Pinter, a Week 5 show at the Howard Theatre in Downing College, is currently looking for a cast to bring the play to the stage.

• Sat 17th Oct, 14:00–17:00, Downing Gym Annex
• Sun 18th Oct, 14:00–17:00, Downing Gym Annex

ODD COUPLE brings together two of the most celebrated mid-century playwrights like never before, bringing together a unique double bill comprising Noël Coward’s ‘Blithe Spirit’ and Harold Pinter’s ‘Night School’. At turns hilarious and disquieting, ODD COUPLE finds the point in both their works where manners meet menace.

We will be holding in-person auditions in the Downing Gym Annex from 14:00 - 17:00 on both the 17th and 18th October. Details about auditions can be found here:
