Two Men and Three Women - the Whittaker Library Cast Index

If you use the Whittaker Library at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, you may not realise that it's possible to search for plays with a specific cast, eg, plays for two men and three women.

Just as you can enclose a phrase in quotation marks when you do a Google search, you can do the same thing with our catalogue search.  You just need to learn the trick.

Eg, for plays for two men and three women, you need to search like this:-

"2ma, 3fe, 5total"

Do give it a try!  You won't remember unless you've experimented for yourself.  

Look down the left column (Refine your search), to see the results subdivided by playwright, format, subject-matter, historical period etc.
