Theatre Communications Group (TCG) has released the list of the most produced plays of its member theaters during the 2012-2013 season.

David Lindsay-Abaire’s Good People is set to have 17 productions, the most of any individual play. Originally seen on Broadway in 2011, the show concerns a single mother in desperate financial straits who visits a now-well-off old boyfriend in the hopes of landing a job.

Following closely behind this play in numbers of productions are Bruce Norris’ Clybourne Park (15), Matthew Lopez’s Matthew Lopez The Whipping Man (14), and the Brian Yorkey-Tom Kitt musical Next to Normal (13).

The list is rounded out by Katori Hall’s The Mountaintop (12), John Logan’s Red (11), Donald Margulies’ Time Stands Still (10), Jon Robin Baitz’s Other Desert Cities (10), Stephen Adly Guirgis’ The Motherf**ker with the Hat (9), Lorraine Hansberry’s A Raisin in the Sun (8), and the Alex Timbers-Michael Friedman musical Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson (8).
