  • 1.  Comedy play that is fun to do

    Posted 10 days ago

    Looking for a play to do in the fall.  A comedy for high school that has between 10-15 parts, mostly for girls with 1 or 2 character male parts.  Already done Clue, 39 Steps, Puffs, Almost Maine and many Don Zolidis plays.  Looking for something very funny, small set or set pieces and fun for students to do.  Any suggestions?

    Following. I love to find solid, smart comedies. My contribution is Kate Hamill's Sense and Sensibility. So much fun, but I think you need at least 3-4 guys.

    I would add, Pride and Prejudice, adaptation by Kate Hamill. We are doing it in the Fall and I'm very excited.

    One of my personal favorites is Alice@Wonderland, by Jonathan Yukich.  There are lots of great roles and the kids love it!

    There are great suggestions here. "Rogues' Gallery" in particular may be a good fit. It's very flexible: https://school-theatre.com/f/10-great-comedic-plays-for-schools
