| We just finished "You can't take it with you" and now I need another large cast comedy. 15 castmembers and up would be great. This is for a Catholic Church group so nothing too raunchy. LOL The age group is anywhere from 20 up to 70. Any help would be greatly appreciated. |

| The Man Who Came to Dinner would be ideal in my opinion. |

We did a mystery/spoof called "Any Number Can Die". It is very funny play with 12 very distinct characters. Lots to play with. We also did "It runs in the family" by Ray Cooney. A hilarious farce. I can't rightly remember but I don't think it has as big a cast as ANCD. |
