As I am rapidly approaching auditions for Radium Girls (p.s. VERY excited), I was curious if anyone has produced this with an "in between" casting.  The script calls for 9/10 actors all roles doubled or 38 without any doubling.  I would like to potentially cast 15-18 (many parts doubled...).  

I have started working out what this would look like then thought, "Hey my forum friends may have done this!"  So, I am asking. 

Thanks in advance!

I did the competition version of this show. I have several girls and only a few guys(I had 5), so had to double the guys more than the girls. It worked well for the most part. I let my casting depend more on my individual students than the suggestion in the script. I had one costume change issue with an actor changing from one scene into the next (Tom/Neff I think) My main thought was create a few more leads, then use the rest as doubled characters. It worked out really well. It's pretty obvious once you break down each character by scene. It's such a great play too!
