Will cherry tomatoes grow in a container? If yes, how many plants per container?

Lycopersicon esculentum (Tomato)
Answers
I grow 'Gardeners' Delight' - one per large pot in the greenhouse. I tried more outside last year, but they all succumbed to blight! I am sticking to my greenhouse this year.

I did cherry toms outside last year - 1 per basket like Weemamma says. While not heavily fruiting, I got quite a few - better than the greenhouse types (due to the lousy weather). You could try some outdoors, and some indoors.

Yes you can and an old wine barrel is perfect! This is what mine looks like:
