It has somewhere around ten principals and needs a (semi-)large ensemble. I definitely wouldn't recommend it if you want a show for a smaller cast.

It was briefly mentioned but also wanted to put in a vote for Once On This Island. My high school did it my freshman year, such great memories. I just happen to love the show and the music. If not that, then I'd also put a vote in for Into The Woods, just love the show, and we always wanted to do it but our director disliked Sondheim too much. Oh well.

Weird Romance. The show is meant to be doubled and tripled with roles, so when we did it we had 11 people, but it could actually probably come down to about 8 or 9.
There's always room for pathos - and jazz hands.

Forever Plaid, you need 4 guys but they need to be really good singers.

Did Kangaroo not say that he wants a larger cast then 19?! People need to READ!!

i think kangaroo's definition of small cast shows is different than most people's here. he said less than 40 with a small ensemble, did he not? my thought (and i assume most others') is a show that has no ensemble and generally less than 15 people.

I'm a SHE but thanks anyway... though it wasn't the exact information I was looking for... I still found the info very interesting because I didn't realize so many shows were done with so few people. But thanks to mtrbo for noticing it said that... but still thanks to everyone else for being willing to give me informatino about shows!
so... anyone know the cast number of Fiddler on the Roof? sorry I keep asking... but musicals pop into my head ~kangaroo

What does it mean to have a show "CURRENTLY RESTRICTED" under MTI show choices?

you can't get the rights for it at the moment.

Do you know how long a show is "currently restricted" for? because some of the shows, though they said "currently restricted"... you could still apply to get the license.

And the other thing about the Phantom Lady was, Bert, she realized, in the city that never sleeps...
What did she realize, Kitten?
That all the songs she'd listened to, all the love songs, that they were only songs.
What's wrong with that?
Nothing, if you don't believe in them. But she did, you see. She believed in enchanted evenings, and she believed that a small cloud passed overhead and cried down on a flower bed, and she even believed there was breakfast to be had...
Where?
On Pluto. The mysterious, icy wastes of Pluto.

Miss Saigon
or Millie
I know that Miss Saigon has a really big ensemble... but I wanted to do it this year or next year [because I still can't guess what the show is going to be]

millie is pretty much restricted as long as the national tour is going. miss saigon, i'm not sure why it's restricted, but there's a non-equity national tour of it going right now, so that might have some reason to do with it. your best answer would be to call mti.. but millie you won't get for a while because of the tour.

thanks apdarcy... you've been really helpful and I really appreciate it
Question:
These are the leads I need for next year. The cast should be around 40... I know I said a smaller cast, but apparently the number has changed
I need lead roles for these characters,
(1) lead soprano... more of a classical voice, not much of an actor [her voice is stronger]
(1) lead alto... "broadway type" voice that might be able to carry the show, but is Asian [this plays a major factor at because of racial discrimination]
(1) Bass/baritone with pretty good acting skills, but he doesn't have any vibrato [pleasant, strong voice to listen to]
(1) tenor II with a softer not strong voice a little bigger, not much but does not have the capability to be the main lead [doesn't work very hard]
and as I mentioned, a cast probably around 30 - 40
Thanks for all your help,
kangaroo
