There is a really good show called Catch me if you can.  It has all the plot twists and turns that kept me on my set the first time I saw it and each time I have directed it audience members loved it very much and come back to see it time and time again.
 
The problem is the scripts cost $25.00, but worth every penny when you first read it.
 
 
This is the website with the synopsis.

What is the cast size for this production?
We are looking for a mystery/thriller for next season, but always have to accommodate a cast of 15-25 performers.
Hard to do with a thriller.

It has a cast of seven so it wont fit your criteria for 15-25 performers.  I just re-read the script, which I haven't seen in over 3 years.  The show consist of 5 males and 2 females, with the majority of the cast just 3 males and 1 female being the main players.  Then there are 2 males and 1 female that are really small bit parts. 
The plot takes place in a Catskills cabin during labor day weekend.  And a pivital point of the show is the amount of smoking done through out the show.  There is no way of getting around this as it fits into the plot.  If you have a stage that does not allow smoking in facilities it may be a problem for you. 
But if you get a chance to just read through it once you'll be kept on the edge of your seat until the very end.  It is also very funny with the "bumbling detective".
