  • Casting Notes: Without doubling, the cast size would be in the range of 30 to 35 players, depending upon the number of girls one chooses to use at Lowood School.

This script includes suggested doubling to obtain a cast of 2 men, 14 women and a variable group of girls for use at both the Lowood and Morton schools.
