I am part of a directing team for a high school festival and we were told that the show that we chose cannot be done at the festival this year. Does anyone know of a show that has a fairly large cast(or can be adapted as such) with really good female lead roles? I tried to search on MTI but all of the ones that came up still had the star being a male. Thanks in advance.

It has three really good female roles, and there are a couple numbers that can use a large ensemble.
Annie
Flora the Red Menace( some male roles but not insurmountable)
I know its over done, but Chicago, I dont know about the large cast thing but its got its females. What was the show that couldnt be done?? Hairspray is another good one, Gypsy, Chorus Line, Cats...
These are just thoughts, hope they help
