Hi, I am looking for suggestions for JR musicals that can be performed by a majority of female cast members. While there are a few boys interested, they are not singers. We are open to male roles that could be successfully sung by a female. I'm aware of Dear Edwina, any others to consider? We did Little Mermaid jR this year and it worked GREAT!! Thanks much!

Seussical JR, Dear Edwina JR, and Little Mermaid JR, worked really well to highlight a "Girl Power" cast. Thoroughly Modern Millie JR is another show to highlight your girls "FORGET ABOUT THE BOY(s)!" Actually, you DO need young men for Jimmy, Trevor, Ching Ho and Bun Foo. Girls can sing the roles of Ching Ho and Bun Foo, but since Ching Ho falls in love with Miss Dorothy, maybe more (or less) comfortable to cast a guy. Super psyched about Legally Blonde JR. OMG, you guys!
