Monica Evans (born 1940) is a British actress known for her portrayal of Cecily Pigeon in Neil Simon's ''The Odd Couple''. She was in the original Broadway cast for its entire run, then appeared in the film version in 1968, and finally appeared in some episodes of the first season of the television series based on the play, all in the same role, alongside Carole Shelley as her sister Gwendolyn Pigeon. She also provided voices for the Disney animated films ''The Aristocats'', as Abigail Gabble (the Goose) (alongside Shelley as Amelia Gabble) and ''Robin Hood'' (1973) as Maid Marian (again alongside Shelley as her handmaiden, Lady Cluck). Evans trained at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in the 1950s and was the stand-in for Joan Plowright in ''Rhinoceros''. She took over the role from Plowright when Plowright's's relationship with Laurence Olivier became public. She was also one of the stars in a magazine soap opera called ''Compact '' and starred in ''The Severed Head'' in the West End. Evans was the maid of honor at Carole's wedding in 1967. She lived in the United States for several years. After her return to the UK she married BBC Radio 1 DJ Dave Cash. Her brother-in-law is Charles Hayward, the drummer of This Heat. ==TV and filmography== *''Make Mine Mink'' (1960) *''You Can't Win'' (TV series 1961) *''The Escape of R.D.7'' (TV series 1961) *''Compact'' (TV series 1962-63) *''No Hiding Place'' (TV series 1964) *''Be My Guest'' (1965) *''The Odd Couple'' (1968) *''Here Come the Brides'' (TV series 1970) *''The Odd Couple'' (TV series 1970-71) *''The Aristocats'' (1970) (Abigail's voice) *''Robin Hood'' (1973) (Maid Marian's voice) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Monica Evans」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
