Recommend Me Some Plays
ThinWhiteDuke09:
"No Exit" its a great Sartrean comedy, and everyone would be way into an existential play. It's also a pretty short read, but easily my favrite of what Sartre has written.
carrotosaurus:
Anton Chekhov is my hero.

WHAT?!
michaelicious:
It's a shame you have to have an equal number of male and female roles because that means you can't do The Zoo Story by Edward Albee. Real shame.

I'm glad to know that QC is so versed in theater.
I just finished reading Equus a a few days ago, and really truly, I'd love to direct that, but I really don't think it's going to happen. One could wish, though.
To Inlander, I have yet to hear of a Shakespeare Festival that doesn't run other plays too. Even the Oregon Shakespeare Festival, which is widely considered as the best in America, performs about 3/4 non-Shakespearian stuff. The local one does 2 Shakespeare, 2 Farces, and 1 musical every season.
We performed You Can't Take It With You and Arsenic and Old Lace last year, along with The Curious Savage.
I will check out Translations, and Zoo Story, and No Exit. Then I believe we're doing a Chekhov showcase sometime this year, I love him too.
The play doesn't have to have an equal number by any means. This is all constraints I am putting on myself. Mostly, I'd just like to have some major female roles, because the females around here get very little recognition. Also, for cast size, I'd like from like 6-10 or so, but I could change my mind if something really good comes around.
So, I will get to checking those out. Thank you very much for your suggestions.
