bullet Topic: Large Cast Play - non musical
    Posted: 10/12/10 at 11:04am
We are looking for a play to kick off our next season, for the August 2011 time slot.

I'd love to hear suggestions for a large-cast, non-musical with children (ages 10 and up) and some name recognition. Maybe an adaptation of a classic novel?

Thanks for your ideas!

Will the cast be made up of only children, or a mix of children and adults?

Assuming that you mean a mixed company of adults and children, here are five options
One, at least, is an adaptation of a classic novel...

The first (and OBVIOUS) show that comes to my mind is CHEAPER BY THE DOZEN.  Not a GREAT show, but it does meet your criteria.
Growing old is mandatory. Growing up is optional.

It will be a mixed company.

Thanks, Lazy Bee for the suggestions.

We did CHEAPER a few years ago, with great success, both at auditions and with attendance.
