Hey Folks,
So I was just asked by a theatre company to direct a play that consists all of teens,and that is a little edgy and that convays a theme. First show that came to mind was "Dog Sees God"but that might be a little to edgy. I would like to the show to be written for teen actors and not teens playing adults. Thoughts?

Jack,
Help us to help you:-
How many actors do you have?
What's the gender mix?
What sort of run-time are you looking for?
(The answers could be "no limitations", of course.)

And while you're thinking of the answers to my questions above, here are http://www.lazybeescripts.co.uk/cgi-bin/Search_Results.asp?iMT=30&iAR=4&iC%2817%29=2&iC%2818%29=2&iC%2819%29=2&iC%2820%29=1&iC%2821%29=2 - a bunch of suggestions to be going on with
That list wasn't filtered for edginess, so from that list, I would look in particular at
- Adolf's Girls by Frank Gibbons
- And Then There Were Three by John F. Glenn
- The Storyteller by Tony Best (adapted from Saki)
- The Trip by Jonathan Caldicot

I would like to keep the show under or around 15 actors with more males than females. Run times dosnt matter, but im not looking for a one act.
