I'll make the suggestion that you be very careful about any dances
    you want to call that involve traveling outside the foursome.  Those
    dances often introduce end effects that can ripple one or two
    foursomes into the set from each end, so with only 5 or 6 foursomes,
    the whole line is confused.
    
    Also, any dance with double progression will leave the dancers
    feeling that they are bouncing off the ends of the line and being
    really limited in who they dance with.  
    
    Other than those issues, I agree with Jack that most dances should
    work fine.

        Fellow callers, what
            are things to look for in dances for a short line. I'm
            afraid that a limited number of dancers will be at an
            upcoming gig and I want to be prepared in the best possible
            way, and so am looking for input and for confirmation of my
            thoughts. They are intermediate/ experienced dancers.
