The past two musicals we have done at my school have been very male oriented and next year most of the guys will have graduated so we wondering what musicals are very female-driven. Thanks in advance

Little Women

[Monsieur D'Arque]

Mame

One fun thing that people have done with Mame- it's such a campy show as is, so why not cast the females as males and the males as females? If timid, mousy, then slutty Agnes is a man in drag, and ridiculously butch Dwight Babcock is a woman in a moustache, imagine the laughs.

[Sweeney Hyde]

GYSPY

Thoroughly Modern Millie is swimming with good girl roles, but you also need some really good males.

All female cast- you could cast anywhere from 8-16 girls. This musical is a BLAST, it deals with everything from first dates, to best friends growing old together! A GREAT SHOW!! I recently did a production at my college and it went over WONDERFULLY!
