The cast of the upcoming revival of Neil Simon's The Odd Couple keeps on growing. Rob Bartlett is now set to play the compulsive gambler Speed in the comedy. He joins previously reported stars Nathan Lane, Matthew Broderick, Brad Garrett, Olivia d'Abo and Jessica Stone.
Best known in New York City as a regular on Don Imus' morning radio show, Bartlett has done three separate stints as Amos Hart in Chicago and notably played flower shop owner Mr. Mushnik in the Broadway staging of Little Shop of Horrors. Bartlett also appeared on Broadway in his own short-lived play, More to Love. His off-Broadway credits include Tabletop and Encores! stagings of Golden Boy and Pardon My English.
