That sounds a bit like my version that I placed in the Creative Commons Licence in 2008 (although mine was aimed at a theatre group with 15 - 20 people). I'd be very interested to see it as well (if only to figure out how small a company can put on a major production of something)

  Jean-Michel, As a lucky coincidence at JV's birthday, I happened to be able to attend a production of an adaptation of Around the World in 80 Days here in Tarpon Springs, FL. There were only 5 actors playing all the parts (Passepartout was played by a woman), and there was a warning -No Balloon. Recalling the original play, I was hoping for an elephant! They had an interesting minimal set - with a world map in the background, and used a table turned around in various configurations for just about every vehicle, with ships' names printed on the different side-faces, so that you only saw them when that ship was in use. The elephant had the table covered with a gray cloth. Would you like a copy of the play bill? Yours,David McCallister
