  • 1.  comedy for 11 kids

    Posted 10-30-2016 12:43
    I have an 8th grade English class that will be putting on a play for the entire school at the end of the year.  I am looking for a good comedy or melodrama with parts for 11 (if some of those are really small, could go up to a cast of 12 or 13 and I'd bring in some older kids).  Any thoughts?  I've done 34 plays with this class over the years, so I've tried a lot, but need some fresh ideas.

    You don't mention if this is a 1st-8th grade school or if it's through High School.   Once Upon A Wolf /Samuel French - We had great fun with this last year.  It is a short play and really fun.

    My kids had a lot of fun with Grimm's Brother Spectaculathon by Don Zolidis and Confession: Kafka in High School by Bobby Keniston
