Has anyone done a staging of
Animal Farm or
Lord of the Flies? If so, how did it go? I once read about a school – wait...did I read about this on this board? – doing two versions of LotF in tandem, one all male, one all female directed by a M and F respectively. They never interacted so as not to cross-pollinate approaches to the show, then ran them on alternating nights. This sounds super-fun.
If you have done either, I'd be interested in which version of the script you used and any student/audience reaction to the show.
