Okay, so I have been accepted into a camp for musical theatre, and it said I need a audition book. So I asked my vocal teacher, except she is all about the opera, and isn't really up to date with musical theatre. She tried her best and her and I put something together.

It said I need 2 contemporary musical theatre pieces (One ballad, one up-tempo), a song that shows off your skills (I chose a comical song, because I do that well haha), and 2 classical pieces (one ballad, one up-tempo)


Here's what we came up with:
Contemporary Ballad-
Contemporary Up-tempo:
song that shows off your skills: Diva's Lament, Spamolot
Classic ballad- Till There Was You, The Music Man
Classic Up-Tempo- Always True To You, Kiss Me Kate


For contemp. ballad I was thinking of something from the phantom of the opera but I'm not sure. I would like to do something different then what people are you use to, you know? But there isn't a lot of musicals that I know and the camp starts at the end of June so I want songs that I am comfortable with.

Any suggestions for songs? You can suggest for ones that I already have filled too.

Thanks so much! I really appreciate your help!

PS- My vocal range is from C# to C# (3 octaves)

Contemporary Ballad- Still Hurting
(It's from the Last Five Years)
Contemporary Up Tempo: Good Morning Baltimore
