Echo on The Odd Couple front. Even though Neil Simon is 91, he is highly protective of his work. You can't use anything of his, even for auditions, without paying royalties.
You might check out
My Sister Eileen (24m, 6f) adapted from the stories of Ruth McKenney by
Joseph Fields and Jerome Chodorov. Don't be daunted by the number of men. Most are supernumeraries and a lot of doubling and gender switching is possible.

Subject: Female Heavy Comedy?
Hey everyone!
I am in the process of rebuilding a program at my new school and we are trying to put on a comedy this fall. I have a group of about 20 kids, most of them are females. Any ideas/suggestions for a solid, female-heavy comedy? I have thought of The Odd Couple (Female Version), but want to see what everyone out there has done in the past or what they suggest.
Thanks!
