Hello,

I am looking for a play that consists only of actors ages 13-21. I would like it to be a full length drama. All I can think of is Dog Sees God any other ideas?

"Full length", "serious" and "youth company" is not a particularly common combination.  (Most of the serious plays performed by that agegroup have the actors playing adults.)

At a pinch, Thorn by Kent Mick might fit the bill.

Is there a stage version of "Lord of the Flies"? If not - maybe there's a market for an adaptation.

There is indeed a stage version of Lord of the Flies.  I directed the North American premiere years ago at The Haverford School, though admittedly I wish I could have done my own adaptation.  Of course, the problem with that show is that it's all male, which isn't necessarily desirable to many youth theatre producers.

Cheers,
