Gender-blind is super-easy with this piece. With mine, I put a note in the program that any character wearing blue was to be considered 'male' and any character wearing pink or red was to be considered 'female.'

ISO: Dramatic one-act (30-40 minutes) with 5 characters. I have 4f and 1m, but if you have something that is neutrally-gendered, that's awesome, too. ------------------------------ Andrea Rassler Northwest Cabarrus High School ------------------------------

This may have been covered before, but it's a timely thing and I don't have time to search: I have 3 students in separate classes who I need to set up with an independent-type study on tech theatre.
