Greetings All... We have always had an annual play at our tiny school (275 students k-12) The kids wanted more than just one show a year. So, this year we started a High School Drama Club. Our first meeting brought in 25 students. As usual, mostly the girls, but we got a fair number of boys too. We have a decent budget to work with. My dilemma is (or at least my first dilemma) how to pick the plays. I've got quite a few years in community theater, so I have seen and been in a lot of shows. But the problem is not having the outside input as far as director submissions and play reading lists. We hope to do a straight show in the fall and a big show, maybe a musical, in the spring. I'm sure with this group of kids and our small town audience base, keeping it "light" would be a good thing. So with all that said, I thought I would turn to you for suggestions. Any ideas?

Thanks.. Marty W

I just ran across a book called "Lets put on a Musical" I don't recall who wrote it. It had lists of musicals for different age groups, including high school, even younger I believe, If you are loking to find a play, it might just work. I found it at my local Borders. It wasn't waht I was looking for, but it might help you to look at it. Good luck!
