Hey! I'm planning on directing an all-female version of a play in the spring in my drama program. I was wondering what plays and pieces everyone here would like to see or could see working well in this style. Thanks.

I've seen 12 Angry Men successfully adapted for an all female cast.

Your best bet is to look at something in the public domain so you don't run into any issues with rights. You also have the advantage that people are more willing to accept a classic piece with a heavy concept applied to it.
