There is a cut version of LETTERS TO SALA not yet published, but I'm happy to send to you. Flexible cast size, mostly women.
Also, since you mention the wonderful RADIUM GIRLS, did you know that D. W. Gregory has another play for similar casts and audiences? Here's the information on it.
SALVATION ROAD by D.W. Gregory
A new play for young actors from the author of Radium Girls. For 12 to 16 performers (9-11 F/3-5M) with flexible casting. Now available from
Dramatic Publishing.
Where do you draw the line between faith and fanaticism?
When Cliff Kozak's hip older sister falls in with members of a fundamentalist church, she suddenly cuts off the whole family as "toxic." A year later, an unexpected sighting of Denise propels Cliff and his best friend into the heart of a deepening mystery. Is she a victim or an accomplice in her own disappearance?
Salvation Road is the winner of the American Alliance for Theatre and Education's Playwrights in Our Schools award. It was developed by New Plays for Young Audiences at New York University's Steinhardt School and was the national winner of Walden Theatre's (Louisville, Ky.) Slant Culture Competition.

Subject: One-Acts with Ensembles?
For the past three years, our school has produced a one-act with a cast of 25 students, and we've challenged ourselves to have every student stay on stage the entire show. Our ensemble moves fluidly and often play a lot of functions: townspeople, set pieces, used to convey and heighten emotional material, etc. We love this style and want to explore more shows that we can use this with. The shows we've produced in this style are Don Zolidis's "Monster," Robert Schenkkan's "Fire in the Hole," an original show "Son of Liberty." We're currently producing "Peter and the Starcatcher" as our spring show, so that option is out. "Radium Girls" is produced quite frequently in our festival, so trying to stay away from that show. No musical can be considered, so what ideas can we explore? What's worked for you?
