    Congrats on the start up!

    Will need some more info. Cast size? Age profile? Gender split? Modern or classic? Farce/comedy/adult/family friendly?

    based in rural north cork. probably talking of a cast of four males and four females but i can reduce this number or the male to female ratio if needs be. age profile of cast would be in the 30-50 range. if possible i would prefer to do a classic family friendly comedy for our first venture into theatre.

    I've 3 suggestions for you although only one of them has a cast of 8

    "Black Comedy" by Peter Shaffer. It's a high energy comedy staged during a blackout. Cast of 8

    "Charley's Aunt" by Brandon Thomas. Cast of 10. Farce in upper class England. Cast of 10

    "Wanted! One Body" by Charles Dyer. Cast of 9. Murder mystery farce
