Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Whatever you do, DON'T do Legally Blonde!. Here's a list of donts: -Anything currently on Broadway -Les Miserables -Cats -Evita -The Sound Of Music -Anything by Andrew Lloyd Webber -Anything by Stephen Sondheim (however, Into The Woods is Sondheim, and in some cases it is alright to audition a song from the musical!. I'd say you can do a song from Into The Woods) -A pop song, meaning something that's not from a musical -Any "show stopper" song such as "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" -"Written In The Stars" and "Dance Of The Robes" from Aida Now after knowing those things, you probably need some reccomendations!. "Turn Back, O Man" - Godspell "Not For The Life Of Me" - Thoroughly Modern Millie "Far From The Home I Love" - Fiddler On The Roof Classic songs from Guys and Dolls and My Fair Lady are always a plus!. If this doesn't help, go to www!.stageagent!.com or www!.musicaltheatreaudition!.comWww@QuestionHome@Com Rebekah is almost totally right; the only thing I'd say is that for an audition for a Sondheim show, you SHOULD sing a Sondheim song - his style is unique and the only way you can show the casting director that you can sing a Sondheim song is to sing another Sondheim song! Legally Blonde is not suitable at all; have a listen to some Sondheim cast recordings and pick a song that you like and go with that!.Www@QuestionHome@Com |
