Productions 2: Play Selection

Play selection starts with an outline by genre of play to cover the next three years - so at least we seek a balance and know what we are looking for: the genre for the next production is to be an historical comedy for the summer 2007 tour.
Next we list how we would evaluate a play. It goes like this:

Does the title fit the genre required?
Is the play worth doing?
Is it suitable for the target audience?
Is it a well- known playwright or title?
Have we the acting resources required?
Have we the crew and technical resources required?

Any member of the Society may suggest a title to any committee member (Main or Sub!) but it would be helpful if they thought through those ideas first: it might sensibly limit the offerings, e.g. we couldn't possibly put on Ben Hur!
