I spend a great deal.of often frustrating time looking for classic plays with small casts currently looking for 4/5m 2/3f. Recent projects include winters tale and 12th night with 8/9. These included lots of doubling but without making the play about
the changes. I've seen All Well that ends well and cymbeline with casts of 5/6/7 both worked really well. i work for an actor training company in exeter uk so have to consider playing age to some extent.
I often look at Ibsen , stringberg, checkout, Shaw - arms and the man widowers houses and Candida are great.
If anyone has managed to find other Shakespeare or 16/17 th century plays that work with small cast I'd like to hear.
