My top choice!? I would advise you look into "The Children's Hour," which has been done with American and English accents, both to great success!. For others, try

"The Sparrow" by Alan Ayckbourn, or "Pygmalion", which was the original, non-musical "My Fair Lady", written by George Bernard Shaw!.

Additionally, if you're looking for a challenge, you could try the character Alais from "The Lion in Winter"!. Famous play!. American playwright, but it takes place in England!. And also the ever-famous "Importance of Being Earnest" by Oscar Wilde, though it's a little overdone!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

try The Importance of Being Earnest or A Perfect Husband by Oscar Wilde!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

The only thing I can think of is My Fair Lady!.!.!.but its a musical!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
